Ingredients
 
 

  • cup Granulated sugar
  • ½ cup Strawberry puree
  • ½ cup Buttermilk
  • ¼ cup Vegetable oil or canola oil
  • 2 Eggs large
  • ½ cup Strawberries chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 2 cup Flour
  • 2 teaspoon Baking powder

Strawberry glaze

  • 2 tablespoon Strawberry jam
  • 4 tablespoon Milk
  • 2 cups Powder sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat an oven to 180c (350f) and prep a donut pan on the side. Into a big mixing bowl, add the strawberry puree, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, buttermilk, salt, and eggs. Mix with a whisk until combined.
  • Add the flour, and baking powder, and mix until almost combined.
  • Add the chopped strawberries and mix until just combined. Don't overmix.
  • Transfer the batter into a piping bag and cut a small hole in the tip of the bag. Butter the donut pan with room temperature butter and pipe the batter into the donut pan ¾ way full.
  • Bake in a 180c (350f) preheated oven for 9-11 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean.
  • Remove the baking pan from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Then remove it from the pan and let it cool on a cooling rack to cool completely.

Make the strawberry donut glaze

  • Into a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the powder sugar, milk, and strawberry jam. Mix with a spoon until smooth and silky.
  • Feel free to adjust the consistency by increasing and decreasing the milk to your glaze thickness liking.

Assembly

  • Dip the donuts in the glaze and let them drip on a cooling rack.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients. It is important that you use room-temperature ingredients like eggs and buttermilk. This step ensures that your mixture mixes into a homogenous mixture and bakes perfectly. you don’t want to place cold batter into the oven.
  • Measure your flour correctly! When measuring your flour, avoid scooping it with a measuring cup. Instead, stir the flour with a spoon to create as many air pockets as possible, and spoon it into your measuring cup. Finally, level it with a back of a knife.
  • Don’t overmix the batter, you don’t want to develop the gluten in the flour. This step ensures you have a moist donut and not a dense and dry donut.
  • Be patient! I know it’s extremely tempting to frost this donut as it is pulled out of the oven, but let the donut cool for at least 5-10 minutes so it will be more firm and won’t crumble up, and prevent the frosting from melting.
  • We highly recommend using a piping bag to pipe the batter into the donut pan. This way your donuts will turn out perfect.
  • Before you start to make this recipe, measure and prepare your ingredients so the cooking process will go smoothly and easily.
  • When making the glaze, adjust the consistency by increasing and decreasing the milk to your liking. If you would like a thicker glaze, add less milk. If you like a thinner glaze, add more milk.
