Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- 1/3 cup (67g) packed light or dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup (60g/ml) milk, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup (60g) sour cream or plain yogurt, at room temperature
- 2 Tablespoons (28g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 and 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (90g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 Tablespoons (28g) unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons light corn syrup
- 2 teaspoons water
- optional: rainbow sprinkles, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and grease a donut pan with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg, then set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk together the egg, brown sugar, milk, and sour cream or yogurt until smooth. Mix in the melted butter and vanilla until well combined. Combine with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Place the batter in a gallon-size zip-top bag and snip off one corner. Pipe the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity about half to two-thirds full.
- Bake for 9 to 10 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when lightly pressed. Cool in the pan for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
- For the glaze, melt chocolate chips, butter, corn syrup, and water in a medium bowl in the microwave, stirring until smooth. Dip the cooled donut tops in the glaze and sprinkle with rainbow sprinkles if desired.
- Enjoy immediately or store leftovers at room temperature for 1–2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Notes
For best results, enjoy donuts on the same day they are baked.
Feel free to experiment with different toppings or fillings in the donuts.
