Rainbow Donuts
For the Donuts:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1/2 cup milk (I used coconut, but you can use regular low/fat-free)
1 tablespoon butter, melted
Food coloring, in rainbow colors
Donut pan (mini or regular)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1/2 cup milk (I used coconut, but you can use regular low/fat-free)
1 tablespoon butter, melted
Food coloring, in rainbow colors
Donut pan (mini or regular)
For the Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons coconut or regular milk
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons coconut or regular milk
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray donut pan with cooking spray.
- Stir all donut ingredients (except food coloring) in a large bowl until well blended.
- Divide batter equally into 6 small bowls. Dye each bowl a different color (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple) using food coloring. Transfer each color to a separate sandwich sized baggie.
- Starting with the red batter, snip the corner off the baggie. Place a bit of batter in each donut cavity (about 1/8 teaspoon). Repeat with all colors in each donut cavity. Repeat with remaining colors, making a tie-dye style batter in the pan. (Batter makes about 15 mini donuts, so you will have some batter left in your baggies after the pan is full, and you will repeat this process once the first batch of donuts is removed from the pan.)
- Bake 7-9 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes in pan and then carefully remove from the pan to a cooling rack. Repeat step 4 to finish off the batter left in your baggies.
- Once donuts are cool, make the glaze. Whisk all glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Dip the donuts in the glaze and place on a cooling rack to set. There will be enough glaze to dip a second time, if you wish. Let dry before stacking or eating.
