Giving our favorite homemade donut recipe a Halloween twist 🍩🎃 My kiddos love these donuts and I love making them ❤️I make some with cinnamon sugar too which is total fall vibes 🍁 Recipe details are below!

Donuts
• 1/2 cup of plain Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup of milk
• 1/4 cup of unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
• 1 egg (lightly beaten)
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour
• 1/3 cup of sugar
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon of salt
Glaze
• 1 cup of powdered sugar
• 4-5 tsp of milk
• 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract

(Topping option)
Cinnamon Sugar Topping
• 1/4 cup of sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons of melted butter

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and grease two 6-cup donut pans with nonstick spray.
Add the yogurt, milk, butter, egg, and vanilla to a medium bowl. Whisk to combine well.
Add the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the bowl. Whisk to combine into a thick batter.
Use ¼ cup batter in each prepared donut spot.
Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until puffed up, golden brown, and a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.
Remove from oven and let cool for a minute or two. Run a knife around the edges to loosen, as needed, then transfer donuts to a wire rack to cool completely.
In a small bowl mix powdered sugar, milk and vanilla and whisk them together. Dip the tops of the donuts to cover with glaze and then add your sprinkles!
