Description

Quick and easy mini donuts made in the air fryer, topped with a simple strawberry glaze.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry jam
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk


Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your mini donut pan or silicone molds.
  5. Spoon or pipe the batter into the donut molds, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Air fry for 6-8 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the donuts cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the donuts cool, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and strawberry jam. Add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired drizzling consistency.
  9. Dip or drizzle the cooled donuts with the strawberry glaze. Let the glaze set before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure your air fryer is preheated for even cooking.
  • Do not overfill the donut molds, as the donuts will puff up.
  • Adjust the amount of milk in the glaze to achieve your preferred thickness.
