Baked donuts do not taste as good as traditional fried donuts.
There. I said it.
Buuuut they are a great healthier alternative for donut lovers, like myself. I’ve been experimenting like a mad scientist with my donut pan to find a baked donut that’s up to par. And let me tell you, it hasn’t been easy. I’ve thrown away more batches of donuts than I care to admit. My Baked Margarita Donuts were a win, but a girl can only have tequila at breakfast every so often. Thankfully, I found another recipe keeper: Baked Coconut Donuts with Chocolate Almond Glaze.
These donuts aren’t just good; they are insanely good. You literally wouldn’t know they are baked. They are extravagant and rich. And the roasted almond chunks deliver the necessary crunch of traditional donuts that baked donuts seem to be missing.
Luckily it’s perfectly acceptable to eat these donuts for breakfast. And suddenly, Monday morning doesn’t seem so bad, right? Have a great week, folks!
