How to Make Carrot Cake Doughnuts
The sweetness of pineapple and carrot in every bite - these doughnuts remind you of the real carrot cake.
Makes: 18 large doughnuts
Steps
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Making the Doughnut Batter
-
Mix the wet ingredients. In a large bowl, beat the sugar and butter with a stand or hand mixer.
-
Incorporate the yogurt, egg, and vanilla into the bowl.
-
Add the pineapple and carrots last. Mix everything thoroughly.
-
Mix the dry ingredients. Use a medium bowl to combine the cinnamon, flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg with a metal wire whisk.
-
Incorporate the two bowls. Sift the dry ingredients into the wet ingredient bowl.
- For the best results and easier stirring, sift a small amount at a time between stirring.
Baking the Doughnuts
-
Fill a doughnut pan. Add the batter to the cavities of the pan, about ½ full.
-
Bake the doughnuts for 10 minutes.
-
Allow the doughnuts to cool. Leave them in the pan for a few minutes.
-
Transfer the doughnuts to a wire cooling rack. Set aside for about 15 to 20 minutes.
Making and Applying the Frosting
-
Combine the frosting ingredients together (except the walnuts). In a small bowl, use a metal wire whisk to whip everything thoroughly until you achieve a smooth mixture.
-
Dip the doughnuts into the frosting.
-
Garnish the doughnuts. Before the frosting sets, sprinkle some chopped walnuts around.
