Monster Eye Donuts: An Incredible Recipe for Halloween Fun


  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 47 minute

Ingredients

– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– ½ teaspoon salt
– 1 cup milk
– ¼ cup vegetable oil
– 2 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 cup powdered sugar (for icing)
– Food coloring (green, purple, orange)
– Candy eyes (large and small)
– Sprinkles (optional)


Instructions

Making Monster Eye Donuts is a fun process that anyone can enjoy. Follow these step-by-step instructions to ensure your donuts turn out perfectly:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a donut pan with cooking spray.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
4. Combine Ingredients: Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Fill the Donut Pan: Spoon the batter into the greased donut pan, filling each cavity about halfway full.
6. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. The donuts should spring back when lightly pressed.
7. Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Make the Icing: In a bowl, mix the powdered sugar with a few tablespoons of milk until you reach a smooth, spreadable consistency. Separate the icing into three bowls and tint each with food coloring.
9. Decorate: Once the donuts are completely cool, dip the tops in the colored icing and allow excess to drip off. Add candy eyes while the icing is still wet. You can even add sprinkles for a festive touch.
10. Set the Icing: Allow the icing to set for a few minutes before serving.

These steps will guide you through creating some unforgettable Monster Eye Donuts that are as fun to make as they are to eat!
