INGREDIENTS • 150g (5oz) plain flour • 1 tsp baking powder • ½ tsp salt • 110g (4oz) caster sugar • 120ml (4½fl oz) milk • 2 eggs, beaten • 2 tsp olive oil [or 20g (1oz) melted butter] • 1 tsp vanilla extract • Extra sugar for dusting or icing (powdered) sugar for icing/frosting Makes 24 mini doughnuts [Recipe viaLakeland] METHOD Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Brush a doughnut pan lightly with cooking oil. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Stir in the sugar. Whisk the milk, beaten egg, olive oil and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl. Combine with the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Fill each of the doughnut cups around ¾ full with the batter, using a teaspoon. Place the pan in the oven and bake for approximately 8 minutes or until firm, but springy to the touch. Cool slightly. Decorate with a simple mixture of icing sugar and enough water to create a glaze, adding coloring if desired. Press freshly iced doughnuts into sprinkles for extra color and texture. Alternatively, pop the warm doughnuts into a bag of cinnamon and sugar, and shake!
