Donuts: French Toast Maple

 French Toast Mini Donuts (donut maker)

Yield: 30 mini donuts


1 c. whole wheat flour

3 tsp baking powder

1 tsp/. cinnamon

2 TB sugar

pinch salt

1 large egg beaten

1/2 c. milk

1/4 c. pure maple syrup (the real stuff works best! not pancake syrup)

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1/4 c. butter, melted


Whisk together: flour, baking powder, cinnamon, sugar, salt

Make a small well in the middle.

Add: beaten egg, milk, maple syrup, vanilla, and melted butter. 

Whisk until just combined.


Add the batter to a zip loc bag, snip the corner, and go at it with the donut maker! (we spray the donut maker to start, and keep an eye on it if they start sticking)


Eat plain, sprinkle with powdered sugar, or make a maple glaze:

Maple Glaze:

3 TB butter

1/3 c. maple syrup

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 - 1 1/2 c powdered sugar (more if needed)

pinch of salt


Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in maple until smooth. Remove from heat and whisk in vanilla, powdered sugar and salt until smooth. Dip donuts in it and lick your fingers!
