Baked Donuts
I mean aren’t these what weekends were made for?? We love weekend breakfast and weekend treats and this fits the bill for either/or. More often than not when I making donuts I go for baked donuts vs. fried. Less mess, still such a delicious flavor, and a bit less fat since we skip the deep frying. Oh and none of that oily smell in the house, just a sweet coconuty scent!
Which Would You Choose Raw Coconut or Toasted?
I couldn’t choose which I liked better, the raw coconut or the toasted coconut so I did half of each. But I will say the finely shredded coconut is definitely what you want here.
Where to Get a Donut Pan
I recommend buying two though. I started with one back in the day and that didn’t last long. Baking 6 at a time was kind of annoying when your recipe makes 12 – 18.
The Perfect Coconut Dessert!
If you like coconut desserts definitely do not pass these by! These were inspired by those mini Hostess crunch donuts we loved as a kid, but this homemade version tastes like REAL food and skips all the artificial ingredients. A million times better!
Can I Make These in a Mini Donut Pan?
You can also make these in the mini donut pans, the baking time will be about 6 minutes.
And serve these with an ice cold glass of milk, because donuts just need milk? Without ice though. Do you add ice to your milk? My brother does. It’s interesting, AKA gross. No I’m kidding. To each their own. Side note, don’t add coconut milk to the donut glaze, stick with cows milk. The first time I went with coconut milk and it came out strangely gummy.
I can’t wait to make another batch of these Baked Coconut Donuts! I’m also hoping to make some coconut ice cream soon, it’s one of the desserts I’m obsessed with lately. Coconut desserts are some of the best.
