Chocolate Coffee Baked Donuts

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chocolate Coffee Baked Donuts.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 400°F (200°C).

2. Step 2

   While it warms up, take a moment to grease a 6-cavity donut pan with a teaspoon of unsalted butter, ensuring each cavity is well-coated for easy release later.

3. Step 3

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder until they’re perfectly blended.

4. Step 4

   Set this dry mixture aside for now.

5. Step 5

   In a separate bowl, combine brown sugar, buttermilk (1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons), brewed coffee, an egg, a tablespoon of melted butter, and a splash of vanilla extract.

6. Step 6

   Whisk these ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and inviting.

7. Step 7

   Now, pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently whisk until just combined.

8. Step 8

   If you’re feeling indulgent, fold in some chocolate chips for an extra treat.

9. Step 9

   Next, grab a large resealable plastic bag, fill it with the batter, and snip off one corner.

10. Step 10

    Squeeze the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full—this is where the magic happens! Pop the pan into your preheated oven and bake for around 8 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when you give them a gentle press.

11. Step 11

    Once they’re done, let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes.

12. Step 12

    Then, carefully turn the pan over onto a wire rack to release those delightful donuts.

13. Step 13

    Allow them to cool for another 5 minutes before diving in.
