Quick Oven-Baked Donuts

Oven-baked donuts made from ready-made plain yeast dough are the quickest option there is: half a kilo of dough, a glass and a shot glass to cut the shapes, and 8-10 minutes in the oven at 180°C. Since the dough is plain, I decorate the finished donuts with melted chocolate and a sprinkle of corn flakes. I recommend this when you want baked treats without a long knead - enjoy!

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

  

• 0.5 kg plain yeast dough store-bought
• chocolate for decorating
• corn flakes for sprinkling

Method

 

1. Place the ready-made dough on the counter and knead it by hand for about 5 minutes.
2. Roll the dough into a thin sheet, no thicker than 0.5 cm. Cut out a circle with a glass, then cut a smaller circle from the center with a shot glass to form the donut shape.
3. Transfer the shapes to a greased baking sheet and let them rise while the oven heats up.
4. Bake at 180°C for 8-10 minutes.
   
5. Let the donuts cool completely, then decorate with melted chocolate and sprinkle with corn flakes. Enjoy!
   

Notes

The dough is plain - the donuts are neither sweet nor salty on their own, so the topping carries the flavor.

Tips

• Thickness: roll the sheet no thicker than 0.5 cm, or the donuts will come out heavy.
• Shape: the glass cuts the outer circle, the shot glass cuts the hole in the middle.
• Decoration: the dough is plain, so the flavor comes from the topping - chocolate, flakes, nuts or sprinkles.
