Description

Fluffy, oven-baked doughnuts bursting with fresh strawberry flavor—no fryer required!


Ingredients

Scale

Doughnuts

  • 2 cups (240 g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp fine salt
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 4 Tbsp (56 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
  • 1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 Tbsp strawberry preserves
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped

Strawberry Glaze

  • ½ cup fresh strawberries, diced small
  • 1 Tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 Tbsp strawberry preserves
  • 2½ cups (300 g) powdered sugar


Instructions

  1. Heat & Prep
    • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
    • Generously spray two six-cavity doughnut pans with nonstick oil.
  2. Dry Mix
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg until evenly combined.
  3. Wet Mix
    • In another bowl, whisk the melted butter with eggs, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and strawberry preserves until smooth.
  4. Combine & Fold
    • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just moistened.
    • Gently fold in the chopped strawberries.
  5. Fill the Pans
    • Spoon the batter into each doughnut well, filling about ¾ full for proper rise.
  6. Bake
    • Bake 7–9 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the doughnut’s center comes out clean.
    • Transfer pans to a wire rack and let the doughnuts cool completely before glazing.
  7. Make the Glaze
    • In a medium bowl, mash the diced strawberries with heavy cream and preserves.
    • Gradually whisk in powdered sugar until you achieve a smooth, dip-worthy consistency—add more sugar if it’s too thin.
  8. Glaze & Enjoy
    • Dip each doughnut into the glaze or spoon it over the tops. Allow the first coat to set, then repeat for an extra-thick finish if desired.
    • Best enjoyed fresh—grab one (or two!) right away.

Notes

Tip: For an even stronger strawberry punch, swap heavy cream in the glaze for a splash of strawberry juice from your preserve jar. Enjoy these tender, fruit-strewn doughnuts any morning you crave something sweet and special!
