These mini doughnuts are great for parties, small gatherings, or afternoon tea even! Why not get rid of boring old biscuits and serve one of these with a cup of tea instead? Your options are endless!

Tiny treats

Everything is more adorable in miniature...Right? If doughnut holes are the adorable cousin of fried doughnuts then these vanilla mini doughnuts have to be the adorable cousin of the baked doughnut.

But the best thing about these tiny treats is that they are light and fluffy inside, despite their size. They also have a good strong taste of vanilla which makes them extremely moreish.

This mix will make somewhere between 24 and 30 mini-doughnuts depending on the size of your miniature doughnut cake pan. I've noticed that not all of the pans on the market are the same size. You can't have too many mini doughnuts!

Here’s how to make them...

Ingredients
  

For the doughnuts

  • 150 g self-raising flour
  • 120 g caster sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 100 ml milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla paste

For the decoration

  • 100 g icing sugar
  • Pink food colour gel
  • Sprinkles

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat your oven to Gas mark 3 and using an oil spray lightly mist the silicone mould with vegetable oil.
  • Sift the flour into a large bowl and place to one side. In a measuring jug mix your milk, egg, oil and vanilla paste.
  • Whisk by hand until well combined and light and frothy.
  • Make a well in the middle of the flour and slowly pour in the wet ingredients.
  • With a wooden spoon or spatula, beat the wet and dry ingredients together. You want a thick sticky but smooth batter at the end.
  • Beat vigorously to make sure there are no lumps.
  • Fill the doughnut moulds roughly ¾ full with the batter. This can most easily be done with the assistance of a piping bag!
  • Place in the centre of the oven and bake for 10-12 mins until they are springy to the touch.
  • Pop out of the mould and leave to cool before icing.
  • To ice: mix together the icing sugar with 1 tablespoon of water making glace icing. You want it thick enough to hold its shape but runny enough to drizzle.
  • Finally thoroughly mix in the food colouring.
  • Drizzle over the doughnuts and immediately decorate with the sprinkles.
