Crumb Cake Donuts
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes Yield: 15 donuts
Ingredients
Crumb Topping
1/3 cup (67g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/3 cup (67g) granulated sugar
1 and 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup (8 Tbsp; 113g) unsalted butter, melted
1 cup + 2 Tablespoons (140g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
Donuts
2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 cup (4 Tbsp; 56g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2/3 cup (135g) packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup (120ml) milk, at room temperature
1/2 cup (120g) plain yogurt or sour cream, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
optional: confectioners’ sugar for dusting
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray donut pan with non-stick spray. Set aside.
Make the crumb topping: Mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Stir in the melted butter using a fork, then add the flour. Mix and crumble with a fork. Set aside.
Make the donuts: Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Set aside.
Whisk the melted butter, eggs, brown sugar, milk, yogurt, and vanilla together until completely combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix. The batter will be very thick.
Spoon the batter into the donut cavities—I highly recommend using a large zipped-top bag for ease. Cut a corner off the bottom of the bag and pipe the batter into each donut cup, filling about halfway. Grab a handful of crumb topping and press down onto the batter of each donut. Pressing it snug into the batter helps prevent the crumb coating from falling off the donuts. (If you only have 1 donut pan, keep the remaining batter in the bowl at room temperature until you can bake the next batch.)
Bake for 10-11 minutes or until the edges and tops are lightly browned. Allow to cool for about two minutes then transfer to a wire rack set on a large piece of parchment paper. Bake the remaining donut batter and once baked, transfer to the wire rack. Dust the tops of each with a light coating of confectioners’ sugar, if desired.
Donuts are best served immediately. Leftovers keep well covered tightly at room temperature or in the refrigerator for 2 days.
Notes
Freezing Instructions: Freeze the baked and cooled donuts for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then warm up to your liking in the microwave.
No Donut Pan? Make donut muffins in your standard 12-cup muffin pan. Line with cupcake liners or grease with nonstick spray. Fill each 2/3 full with donut batter. Top with crumb topping. Bake at 350°F (177°C) for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Half Recipe: I tested this recipe for a larger crowd just in case you need it for holiday entertaining. But if you don’t need 15 donuts laying around, halve the recipe to yield around 7-8 donuts instead.
