Things You\’ll Need

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon fine salt

  • 1 cup white sugar

Ingredients for baked strawberry champagne donuts

Tip

This recipe makes 18 donuts. Depending on the size of your donut molds, you may need one or more pans. You can also use this recipe to make mini donuts.

To avoid "spongy" donuts, use flat champagne.

Step 1

Pre-heat the oven to 375° Fahrenheit.

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix well.

Mix dry ingredients

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, melted butter and vanilla. Whisk until the eggs are gently beaten.

Step 3

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix. The batter will seem dry and clumpy; this is normal.

Add champagne to batter

Step 4

Slowly add the champagne. Stir until the ingredients are evenly combined. At this point, the batter will be similar to cake batter.

Fold in the chopped strawberries.

Tip

Typically, donut batter is piped into a pan. If you want to use a piping bag, make sure the strawberries are very finely chopped. The opening of your piping bag should also be larger than usual. Another option is to pipe the batter (without strawberries) into the pan and stir chopped strawberries into each individual mold.

Step 5

Scoop or pipe the batter into greased donut pans.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Leave to cool completely.

Things You\’ll Need

Ingredients for champagne glaze

Step 2

You can easily adjust the champagne glaze to suit your preferred consistency. For a thicker glaze, add more powdered sugar. For a thinner glaze, add more champagne.

Tip

If using freshly chopped strawberries, gently pat them dry before adding to the donuts. Otherwise, the natural juices might make the glaze soggy. You can also use dehydrated strawberries instead.

Don't be afraid to experiment with your favorite toppings. These baked donuts pair well with coconut flakes, lemon zest, crushed Oreos and of course—chocolate! You can also add a personal touch with festive sprinkles or edible glitter. Happy New Year!
