Ingredients
Scale
Doughnuts
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup diced strawberries
Glaze
1/2 cup strawberries, diced
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup confectioners sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F
In a small bowl get started with your glaze by adding the 1/2 cup diced strawberries and 2 tablespoons sugar. With a fork macerate the strawberries to allow all of the juices to come out. Set aside
In a bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt
In another bowl mix together the buttermilk, eggs, honey, melted butter, and vanilla extract
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir to combine
Fold in the diced fresh strawberries
Lightly grease your doughnut pans and fill 2/3 way full with the batter
Put them into the oven to cook for 8 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean
Once they are cooked let them cool slightly while you make the glaze
In a bowl add the confectioners sugar and the juice that the strawberries produced. Don’t add in the actual strawberries! Start by adding 2 tablespoons and go from there. If it gets too runny, add in more sugar and if it is too thick, add in more juice
Dip the doughnuts in the glaze, shake off the extra, and eat! Happy Spring!
