Baked Donut Holes
These healthier "donuts" taste incredibly like their fried counterparts! The nutmeg and cinnamon really do their job here! Great with coffee or for a mid-afternoon snack! I baked mine in a mini muffin tin to resemble little "tim-bits" but you can bake them in a standard muffin tin for a larger size.
Recipe from Good Life Eats
Baked Donut Holes
1 3/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup oil (for low fat version, I've used half oil, half applesauce and the results were fantastic)
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
Topping:
1/4 cup butter (I used low-fat tub margarine)
1/3 cup sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease mini or standard muffin tin. Combine first five ingredients in a bowl. In another bowl, mix together egg, oil, sugar, and milk. Add dry ingredients, and mix only to incorporate. If using a standard muffin tin, pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each tin. If using a mini, pour 2 tbsp of batter for each tin.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, the mini muffin tins should bake for about 13-15 minutes, or until tooth pick comes out clean.
Meanwhile melt 1/4 cup butter in microwave. In a shallow dish, combine sugar and cinnamon. While the donuts are still hot, roll them in the melted butter, then roll them in the cinnamon sugar to coat. Repeat with remaining donuts and transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving. :)
