Mini Donuts! |
Right after I realized that one of the interchangeable plates of the Morries 3-in-1 Sandwich Maker is a donut plate, I wasted no time in researching for a donut recipe that does not require any frying nor yeast. And I found it. One that requires the most basic ingredients together with simplest steps, so easy that I decided to embark on the baking process again after a late weekday night.
8 mini donuts at one go! |
My first batch of donuts came out just nice, despite not knowing how much batter to pour as well as the time required to bake till done. Ironically, my 2nd batch were not as good, as it consisted of small puny donuts (yes, even smaller than what's it's supposed to be!) instead. After a few more batches, I concluded that 1 tbsp of batter is enought for each donut hole and it took around 8 minutes to bake till golden brown. There's a problem though - the undersides turned brown much faster than the top layer, which I suspect it was because the batter did not rise enough to meet the upper plate, hence not browning fast enough. I will need to find a way to get around this.

Gone in a jiffy! |
I would say these non-fry donuts tasted more like pancakes than the usual deep fried donuts we eat at bakeries. In fact, they tasted like the baked donuts being sold at Sapporo Petit Doughnut located Takashimaya, a shop selling mini baked donuts with different fillings.
These baked donuts go well with castor sugar, or with different jams. I tried it with peanut butter, and it tasted awesome!

Hi! I recently bought the Morries 3 in 1 Snack Maker. I was looking for a batter recipe to make the donuts and yours were perfect:) Thanks so much for creating this post.
