Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 3/4 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease donut pan thoroughly. I used non-stick cooking spray which worked well.
  • In a medium sized bowl, mix the above ingredients from flour through ground cloves. Whisk together to blend.
  • Using an electric mixer, blend butter and brown sugar together until fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and continue beating until well blended.
  • Turn the mixer to low and alternately add sour cream and flour mixture. Mix until just combined. Batter will be thick.
  • Fill each cavity of the donut pan almost full. I found that a greased finger helped pat the dough in each space rather nicely.
  • Bake 12 to 15 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn out on a cooling rack to finish cooling.
