Instructions
Lemon Strawberry Baked Doughnuts
Preheat oven to 425º F. In a small bowl, combine almond milk, lemon juice, and zest. Stir in butter and eggs. Set aside.
In a large bowl combine, flour, sugar, nutmeg, and salt.
Pour liquid mixture into flour mixture. Whisk together until completely combined, then stir in strawberry pieces.
Pour batter into a greased donut pan just below the edges, making sure to not cover center hole. Bake 9-10 minutes until cooked and golden. Remove from oven and cool slightly, then transfer doughnuts to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chocolate Strawberry Glaze
While doughnuts are baking: In a medium bowl mix together powdered sugar, strawberry preserves, and almond milk. It should be thick, but able to spread easily with a brush.
Spread over each baked doughnut then top with desired decorations.
Notes
Use fresh, ripe strawberries that smell sweet for best flavor.
Although these baked doughnuts are made with simple ingredients you do need a doughnut pan to make them so make sure you have one before you start.
Make sure the doughnuts have cooled completely on a cooling rack before spreading the glaze over or it will melt off.
I prefer to use all-purpose flour and baking powder instead of self-raising flour because you are in control of the rising agent. If you use self-raising flour you may get different results.
If your glaze is too thick you can easily adjust the consistency but adding more almond milk or powdered sugar.
Storage: Store the glazed doughnuts in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge or freeze them for up to 3 months.
