BAKED CONFETTI DONUTS WITH EASY CHOCOLATE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg. Set aside.
• In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together milk, Greek yogurt, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
• Add the wet ingredient mixture to the flour mixture and stir until batter is just combined. It should look like thick cake batter.
• Gently fold the rainbow sprinkles into your batter.
• Grease your donut pan with cooking spray (I use a Misto spray bottle [affiliate link] with vegetable oil instead of store-bought cooking spray - healthier and more environmentally friendly!)
• Spoon donut batter into a pastry bag with no piping tip (you could also use a plastic bag and snip off a corner with scissors).
• Pipe donut batter into donut pan, filling each cavity a little more than halfway full.
• Bake donuts at 350 degrees F for 10-12 minutes until lightly browned on top.
• Remove donuts from oven and let them cool in the pan for 5-6 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to finish cooling.
• When donuts are nearly cooled, make the glaze.
• Whisk powdered sugar and cocoa powder together in a medium mixing bowl.
• Add melted butter and whisk it into the powdered sugar.
• Whisk vanilla extract and milk into powdered sugar mixture until smooth. The glaze should be thick and shiny.
• Dip the top of each donut into the glaze and return to the wire cooling rack (you may want to put a towel or plate under the wire rack to catch any drips of frosting). Top donuts with sprinkles while glaze is still wet.
• Let the glaze set for 10-15 minutes or so, then serve and enjoy!
