Ingredients
  

For the Donuts:

2 cups all-purpose flour

½ cup granulated sugar

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

½ cup buttermilk

2 large eggs

4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Glaze:

1 ½ cups powdered sugar

3 tbsp whole milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Optional: food coloring or sprinkles for decoration

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a donut pan or use a silicone donut mold.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

      Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.

        Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix. The batter will be thick.

          Fill the Donut Pan: Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full to allow room for rising.

            Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The donuts should be lightly golden.

              Cool: Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                Make the Glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth. If desired, add food coloring to the glaze to achieve your favorite colors.

                  Glaze the Donuts: Once the donuts are cool, dip the tops into the glaze, letting any excess drip off. For an added touch, sprinkle with decorative sprinkles right after glazing.

                    Serve: Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes, then enjoy your melt-in-your-mouth glazed donuts fresh or store them in an airtight container for later.
