Vanilla Baked Donuts

Donuts!   I thought donuts especially Baked Donuts would be a great way to celebrate my second blog anniversary, yes how time flies.

I also hoped you noticed An Italian in my Kitchen has a bit of a new look, what do you think? Do you like it? And well, it is almost Valentine’s Day, so what the heck, donuts for everyone.

Ever since I first made cake donuts, Mocha Cake Donuts to be exact, I have been obsessed with them.

It doesn’t help that the Italian eggs me on by letting me know that yes, my cake donuts are exactly what he was looking for,  soft and absolutely yummy!

Or should I say,  perfect for morning café-latte-dunking. My poor Vanilla Cake Donuts.

What makes Baked Donuts so soft?

The addition of milk and greek yogurt are what helps to make these donuts soft.

How long to bake Vanilla Donuts?

These donuts take no time to make, 20 minutes and you are eating donuts. Yummy soft, moist, baked Vanilla Cake Donuts.

Dipping them in melted white chocolate makes them just a little bit decadent or as the Nutella Queen said “Nutella”!!!

How to Temper Chocolate for Dipping

In a deep dish over a pot of boiling water (make sure the water does not touch the bottom of the dish). Add 1/2 of the chopped chocolate that you are using. 

Heat until temperature reaches 122 F (50C), remove from the heat and add the remaining chopped chocolate, stir continuously until temperature reaches 89F (32C). 

Your chocolate is now tempered and ready to use. 

But if you don’t like white chocolate or Nutella you can always substitute with melted dark or milk chocolate.

These Vanilla Cake Donuts are an easy and delicious Valentine’s day treat or any day treat for that matter. Enjoy!

        Donuts are my husband’s FAVORITE! Honestly I don’t think there is any dessert he’d rather have on Valentine’s day, haha. We even had donuts instead of cake at our wedding!

        Oh my goodness… if there is one thing I miss the most it’s doughnuts. Granted there are completely safe gluten and dairy free versions of them, but I really miss the real ones. These look so pretty. I love your photography too.

        Okay, I have to go now. I really try not to look at recipes that I cannot eat anymore. I just wanted to let you know that I’m pinning this to Thursday Favorite Things Blog Hop Group board.

        xoxo. Happy Valentines Day.

        Oh, yum yum! I like how your recipe has Greek yogurt in it so it is just a wee healthier… So I can eat more and not feel guilty!
