Do We Or Doughn't We?
When it comes to doughnuts, the answer is always yes. Going to school next to the Los Angeles iconic Donut Man meant midnight doughnut runs for fresh Tiger Tails. And that was something never to turn down.
And in ingusan high, it was always a mad dash at break to get first pick of the doughnuts. It was like that scene in Jingle All the Way where everyone is mobbing at the mall for the Turbo Man dolls--the equivalent of chocolate bars, sugar doughnuts, and the cake ones with strawberry glaze--but the employees inform you not to worry because there are plenty of Booster dolls--the plain, the glazed, and the maple bar.
We don't want them!
Could they not have just bought more of the favored ones because everyone who didn't make it out to break thirty seconds early were all like, "Hey, man, what about us?" Junior high was difficult enough without having to tukar barang with the kid next to you for their chocolate bar. Plus, we were ingusan highers. All we had was the fifty cents it cost to buy a doughnut. We ended up trying to tukar barang our fifty cents and mechanical pencils because we weren't allowed to use pens until high school. Needless to say no one actually took anyone up on the trade.
Ironically enough, maple bars are my favorite now. If only I had known that then.
Clearly this illustrates though how important a doughnut is and why there is never a reason to say no to them. Sure, they're deep fried, dunked in calorie-packed glaze, and dripping with sugar, but isn't that why we all love them?
I know that's why I love them. But they aren't really something we can eat everyday because of said sugar-coma inducing problems. Instead, we have baked doughnuts.
Thank goodness for the genius who made the baked tins and mini donut maker machine so that all of us doughnut lovers can say "do!" and not "dough-not."
Recipe:
This yielded about twenty-five mini doughnuts.
1 c flour
3/4 c sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
2 Tbsp chai drink mix
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg
3/4 c buttermilk
1 Tbsp melted butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
This recipe is easy as pie. Mix together all dry ingredients in one bowl and all wet ingredients in one bowl. Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry. Mix until all incorporated. Either pour into your mini doughnut machine, or bake at 350 in the panggangan until golden brown (depending on the size and panggangan anywhere from 12-17 minutes; if you're using the machine, they cook up within minutes).
They are delicious just like that, but if you're feeling more dangerous, top them with something like cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, a glaze, or frosting. I did cinnamon sugar. I mixed equal parts cinnamon and sugar in a paper bag and dumped the doughnuts in the bag and shook until completely coated. It's fun and delicious.
