We needed another kitchen gadget/appliance like we need a hole in the head, but after several IG donut posts featuring perfectly round mini glazed donuts topped off with sprinkles, {the Easter Bunny} thought it’d be fun to skip the donut shoppe and make our own on Saturday and/or Sunday mornings!

You, too, can craft homemade circles of love with a quick trip to your local Target…

This Sunbeam Donut Maker was on clearance for 50% off last week for just $15. It gets fabulous reviews as seen here.

The basic batter is surprisingly easy to prepare and I happened to have everything on-hand including the glaze ingredients {just powdered sugar & milk}.

From what I understand, just about any muffin {not cake} mix will work here. I’ve heard rumors from this girl that you can make cinnamon toast crunch donuts with this mix…

Yes, please.

Since we’re on Spring Break, we may have fired this baby up once or twice to experiment…

The opportunities are endless with these things. It comes with a few recipes in the manual, but any thicker muffin-type batter would work.

I’m thinking blueberry donuts with a lemon glaze.

Or a simple cinnamon sugar.

Pumpkin for the Fall or gingerbread for the holidays.

Please stop me.

Just don’t forget your coffee to go alongside.

Happy Spring Break….or what’s left of it!

XOXO
