What's in This Halloween Donuts Recipe?
“See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.”
All-purpose flour. Also called plain flour.
Greek Yogurt. The Greek yogurt will give the batter the texture that will moisten the donut and prevent it from being too dry.
Granulated Sugar. It providing sweetness to the donuts.
Milk. I use full-fat milk.
Baking Powder & Baking Soda. I use them for a light and fluffy texture.
Salt. To enhance the flavor .
Egg. I use just one egg.
Coconut Oil. I like to use melted coconut oil for a softer texture of the donuts. Replace coconut oil with melted butter if you like.
For the Glaze, I use dark chocolate, and white chocolate to make the spider web decoration.
