Ingredients
Doughnuts:
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons natural cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon fine grain salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or coconut oil
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
Chocolate glaze:
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (4 tablespoons)
- 4 tablespoons whole milk, warmed
- 1/2 tablespoon light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
Directions
For the doughnuts:
-
Lightly grease a doughnut (or muffin) tin and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and baking soda, and then whisk in the sugar, nutmeg and salt. Add the butter, and using your fingers, rub it into the dry ingredients until it becomes coarse crumbs.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, yogurt, vanilla and egg. Add to the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix, or your doughnuts may be a bit rubbery.
-
Fill a ziploc bag with the batter, cut an opening in one corner, and pipe the batter into each cup 1/2 to 3/4 full. It’s important not to overfill, or as the doughnuts rise, you’ll lose the hole. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the doughnuts spring back when touched. Let cool slightly on a wire rack before glazing.
For the glaze:
-
Combine butter, milk, corn syrup, and vanilla in medium saucepan and heat over medium heat until butter is melted. Decrease the heat to low, add the chocolate, and whisk until melted. Turn off heat, add the powdered sugar, and whisk until smooth. Place the mixture over a bowl of warm water and dip the doughnuts immediately. Allow glaze to set for 30 minutes before serving.
YUM! These look fantastic! I love the chocolate glaze!
oh those look fantastic! I love the fact that you don't have to fry them!
I've been wanting to try make baked doughnuts, these ones look amazing, especially the chocolate glaze!
I just bought doughnut pan and I'm totally using this recipe for my first experiment! These look so yummy. I'm so glad I can now make doughnuts without all of calories of deep frying!! Yumm

I'm thinking of making these friday morning for my friends as a day before spring break treat. The only problem is, I have no time to go to the store and get plain yogurt, and I only have raspberry. Would this be a bad choice? Chocolate-Raspberry doughnuts? I'd love some input!
Meetmeinthekitchen – I think that would be fine! As long as your strain out any raspberry chunks (if there are any). You could even do a raspberry glaze:
*2 tablespoons strained raspberry jam or raspberry jelly
*1/2 teaspoon vanilla
*1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
Combine jam and vanilla. Slowly whisk in sugar until thick texture is achieved.
Hope it works out for you! I wish my friends made me spring break treat doughnuts 😉
Because these are baked, that means they are super healthy right? 😉
I am so excited about this.
Yum, these look fantastic. Funny I bought my donut molds, made fun donuts and I haven't used it since! I most definitly will be making these donuts this weekend! Thanks!
These were fantastic. I substituted olive oil for coconut oil and sprinkled shredded coconut on glazed doughnuts. Seriously these are great!
Oh yum. These donuts are amazing. I have to make everything gluten free/dairy free for my daughter but they were still delicious. I used brown rice flour blend for the AP flour, almond yogurt and almond milk. I brushed the donut pan with coconut oil and used coconut oil in the frosting.
This is a wonderful recipe! I made this with whole wheat flour and it came out wonderfully. Thank you very much!!
Thank you! I’m glad it worked out with whole wheat flour, maybe I’ll try using it next time I make a batch of these 🙂
