Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the coating: 1/2 cup granulated sugar mixed with 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 24-cup mini muffin pan with non-stick cooking spray or line with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.
- In a separate bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined (be careful not to overmix).
- Using a small cookie scoop or spoon, fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full with the batter.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the doughnut holes are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the pan from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
- While the doughnut holes are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, coating all sides evenly.
- Serve warm and enjoy these delightful baked treats!
