Description

These Baked Maple Glazed Apple Crisp Doughnuts are soft, fluffy baked donuts packed with fresh shredded apple, topped with a crunchy cinnamon streusel, and finished with a sweet maple glaze. They’re the perfect homemade fall breakfast or dessert in just over 30 minutes.


Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 to 1 cup peeled shredded apple
  • Streusel:
  • 1/2 cup large oats
  • 2 tablespoons cold butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Maple Glaze:
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease donut pans.
  2. Whisk together the sugar, melted butter, and oil until smooth.
  3. Add the eggs, vanilla, buttermilk, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
  4. Add the flour and stir just until combined, then fold in the shredded apple.
  5. For the streusel, mix the oats, butter, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon until crumbly.
  6. Pipe or spoon the batter into the donut pans, filling each cavity about three-quarters full.
  7. Press the streusel evenly over the tops.
  8. Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  9. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  10. Whisk together the melted butter, maple syrup, and powdered sugar until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled doughnuts and let the glaze set before serving.

Notes

  • The batter will be thick; using a piping bag makes filling the pan much easier.
  • Peel the apple before shredding for the best texture.
  • If the glaze is too thick, add a few drops of milk until it reaches a drizzle consistency.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days at room temperature or 5 days in the refrigerator. Freeze unglazed doughnuts for up to 3 months.
