Snickerdoodle Donuts/Donut Hole Muffins

 School is out and we had our first Cooking Camp by making Snickerdoodle Donuts and Donut Hole Muffins.  If you don't have a donut pan or mini muffin pan, no problem!  Just use a regular muffin pan and bake the muffins a little longer.  


 Look at these cute grandkids, who are brother and sister, enjoying some baking time in Nana's kitchen.

 They are enjoying their baking accomplishments and even had some to take home to their family.

Snickerdoodle Donuts/Donut Hole Muffins

These were a big hit at our first Cooking Camp! I had so much of the sugar coating leftover that I cut that part in half for an improvement to the recipe, and for less waste, for when I make another time, and there will be another time...these were so tasty!!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • Coating: 1/2 cup butter, melted, 1/2 cup sugar, 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 24 cup miniature muffin pan, or a 12 cup regular muffin pan. Be sure to spray the pans over the kitchen sink!
  2. Stir together sour cream, oil, egg, vanilla, and 1/2 cup sugar.
  3. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium bowl.
  4. Whisk sour cream mixture into the flour mixture. Spoon 1 tablespoon batter (we used a small cookie scoop) into prepared pan, keeping batter rounded on top.
  5. Bake in a preheated oven until golden and springy when lightly touched on top, about 10-12 minutes. Cool in pan for 5 minutes. Remove from pan to a wire rack; cool completely, about 15 minutes.
  6. Prepare the coating: Place melted butter in a small bowl. Whisk together the sugar, and the spices in another small bowl. Dip each muffin in butter; immediately dredge in sugar mixture, and place on a serving platter.

  3. Golly and I even have a donut pan. The grands sure look pleased with the results. My grands no longer enjoy time spent in the kitchen. I am more likely to find them playing wiffle ball under the trees. They still enjoy eating, though.

  30. Lol, the look on your grandchildren's faces is "Oh happy days!" Really says it all Kitty. It's nice that you get to spend so much time with your sweet grandkids! And they are so lucky too....these must've been divine....I have a weakness for doughnuts, my husband bought me one today when he went to get coffee. Though I'm on a diet, I ate it anyways!! I mean, I couldn't very well say no!!! Lol....
