I've been seeing donuts everywhere it seens. I haven't had a donut in quite a while, but I had a craving for cake donuts and decided it was time to satisfy my craving with a homemade batch.
So off to the store I went to pick up a donut pan (Affiliate Link) and a few more ingredients. I wasn't quite sure what flavor I would make, but after finding cinnamon chips and I knew exactly what I would make.
Apple-Cinnamon oven baked donuts. Much easier than frying and less calories too.
I had so much fun topping these donuts, there's so many ways.
-
Glazed and topped with chopped cinnamon chips.
-
Covered in powdered cinnamon sugar.
-
Topped with melted cinnamon chips with sprinkles on top.
-
Covered in chocolate if you are a chocolate fan.
I could go on and on. Yeah, I had fun topping these donuts, but I had more fun eating them.

Yum, wish I could have one of these with my tea right now. These sound great. I think I might have to break down and try them.
Have a great weekend,
