Print the recipe card!  sugar donut muffins

Yum!  If you need a sweet treat fix, these’ll do ya!  The only real difference in making these 100% food storage lies in what’s used to moisten them before rolling in sugar, cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar.   Normally the recipe calls for melted butter , but I’ve found another option that works just fine.

These are such a cinch to make and hit the spot when you’re searching the cupboards for a quick treat!  My kids ask me to make these for them all the time.  (PS.–You could make it even easier by storing the dry mix on it’s own!)

makes 24-36 mini muffins or 10 standard muffins

Ingredients

3/4 c. sugar

1 TBS egg powder, sifted

1 1/2 c. flour

2 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

2 TBS powdered milk

1/4 c. vegetable oil

3/4 c. + 2 TBS water

1 tsp. vanilla

**For the sugar topping…

a drop (more if not concentrated) of flavoring oil

1/8 cup water

1/8 cup sugar (powdered, cinnamon sugar or granulated)

****

Instructions:

Mix together dry ingredients.  Add liquids and stir well.  Fill muffin cups and bake at 350 degrees, 15-18 minutes for standard sized muffins or 11-12 minutes for mini muffins.  Cool enough to handle.  Spritz water and flavoring over top of cooled muffins and dip in choice of sugar.

****

Add the liquid ingredients into the dry mixture and stir together.

Fill the muffin cups.  The easiest and fastest way to do this is to pour the batter into a quart sized ziploc bag, snip the corner and then squeeze portions out.

In a spray bottle, add a drop of flavoring oil to 1/8 of a cup of water and spritz the tops of the muffins to moisten.

Dip in your choice of sugar…

and enjoy!

Notes:

• The flavoring oil that I used is a Lor Ann oil (extremely concentrated) but you can use anything.  Lor Ann oils are available at cake supply stores or online.
  
• This recipe is easily adapted to bake in a sun oven by simply having the right sized pans.  Here are the ones I use that fit nicely into my Global Sun Oven.  Depending on the temperature you reach, baking time would increase to 20-30 minutes.
