TO MAKE THE DOUGHNUTS:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease two 6-cavity doughnut pans.


Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.


Mix together brown sugar, melted butter, and peanut butter. Stir in eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in vanilla.


Add flour mixture in three portions, alternating with two portions of milk. Mix just until combined.


Divide batter evenly among doughnut pans. Spread evenly.


Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until a pick inserted into the center comes out clean.


Cool doughnuts in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes. Then, transfer doughnuts to wire racks to cool completely.

Dip each doughnut straight down into the glaze. Then, set each on a wire rack with the glazed side facing upward.
