Saturday Morning Treats Part 1

Saturday Morning is one of my favorite times of the week.  I get to sleep in, and I have time to make yummy sweet things for breakfast.  Recently, I have been trying new recipes, and I want to take a moment to share some of them.

Blueberry Cake Doughnuts

A Well-Seasoned Life 

These doughnuts were yummy, but Gabe and I found them to be a little too fluffy (more like cake than a doughnut).  Next time I will try modifying the recipe so that the batter is a little bit thicker, and the doughnuts are more dense.  Find the recipe here.

I was so excited about eating these that I forgot to take a photo of my own muffins.  They were easy and very tasty!  The muffins were moist, and the cinnamon sugar on top was amazing!  Find the recipe here.

Baked Chocolate Doughnuts

This was my first try at making doughnuts, and I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was.  Prep wasn't too difficult and the baking time was really short.  I used a regular sized doughnut pan, rather than the recommended mini doughnut pan, and baked them for 10 minutes.  I also used heavy cream in place of the buttermilk, in the doughnuts and the glaze, because I didn't have buttermilk.  They turned out great, especially while hot!
