Easy Homemade Baked Doughnuts Recipe

Baked doughnuts are a variation of traditional doughnuts that are made by baking them in an oven rather than deep-frying them. They are typically made with the same ingredients as fried doughnuts, such as flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, eggs, and butter or oil. However, the recipe may be adjusted slightly to account for the different cooking method. Baked doughnuts often have a slightly denser texture than fried doughnuts and may not have the same crisp exterior. Many people prefer them because they are considered to be a bit healthier than fried doughnuts since they are not cooked in oil. They are also easy to make at home, you can use a doughnut pan to give them shape and with a few ingredient you can have them ready for breakfast or snack.
