Introduction

Who doesn't love doughnuts? They are soft, fluffy, and oh so delicious. But have you ever thought about making doughnuts at home? With this simple pancake mix doughnut recipe, you can make fresh, homemade doughnuts in no time. The best part? You probably already have all the ingredients you need in your pantry.

Ingredients

To make pancake mix doughnuts, you will need the following ingredients:
  • 2 cups pancake mix
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • Oil for frying
  • Optional toppings: powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, chocolate glaze, sprinkles, etc.

Note:

You can use any type of pancake mix for this recipe, but keep in mind that some mixes may require additional ingredients such as oil or water. Be sure to check the instructions on your pancake mix package before starting.

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the pancake mix, milk, egg, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Mix until well combined and smooth. 2. Heat the oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking. 3. Using a piping bag or a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off, pipe the doughnut batter into the hot oil in a circular motion. Be careful not to overcrowd the pot. 4. Fry the doughnuts for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon or a spider strainer to remove the doughnuts from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. 5. Once the doughnuts have cooled slightly, you can add your desired toppings. You can dust them with powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar, drizzle them with chocolate glaze or caramel sauce, or sprinkle them with your favorite toppings such as sprinkles, chopped nuts, or crushed cookies.

Tips and Variations

- If you don't have a piping bag or a ziplock bag, you can use a spoon to drop the doughnut batter into the hot oil. - For a healthier version, you can use whole wheat pancake mix or substitute some of the flour with almond flour or oat flour. - You can also experiment with different flavors by adding lemon zest, orange zest, or nutmeg to the doughnut batter. - If you want to make mini doughnuts, you can use a small cookie scoop or a melon baller to portion out the doughnut batter. - If you don't want to fry the doughnuts, you can bake them in a doughnut pan in a preheated oven at 350°F for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
