COCONUT ALMOND BAKED DOUGHNUTS
Baked doughnuts have basically taken over the Internet. I understand. The opportunity to indulge in a homemade doughnut, without having to heat up a big pot of oil, is appealing. That said, I think that baked doughnuts are in a completely separate category than regular doughnuts. They're wonderful, but more in line with cakes and cupcakes than a true doughnut. Baked doughnuts are incredibly easy to whip up. The batter comes together in minutes, bakes quickly and makes just enough doughnuts to enjoy for brunch without leftovers.

Steps:
- For the batter: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 6-cup doughnut pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, coconut, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, almond extract and egg. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined.
- Transfer the batter to a plastic ziptop bag and cut the corner to make about a 1/2-inch opening. Squeeze the batter evenly into the depressions of the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into a doughnut comes out clean, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer the pan to a rack to cool slightly, then carefully tip the doughnuts out onto the rack to cool completely, about 45 minutes.
- For the glaze and toppings: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder. Add 4 teaspoons of the milk and whisk to make a smooth glaze. Add a little more milk if necessary.
- Dip the top of each cooled doughnut in the glaze. Top with the toasted coconut and almonds.
