How To Make It:

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C and grease your donut trays (12 mini molds recommended).

  2. Mix the batter: In a bowl, combine all donut ingredients and whisk until smooth and lump-free.

  3. Pour & bake: Fill the donut trays evenly and bake for 20 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

  4. Cool the donuts: Let them rest in the trays for 30 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

  5. Prepare the glaze: In a separate bowl, whisk custard powder, sugar, and almond milk. Microwave in 3×30 second intervals, whisking between each.

  6. Adjust consistency: Add an extra 30–50g of milk as needed. If using protein powder, let glaze cool before adding it for a thicker texture.

  7. Dip & set: Dip each cooled donut into the glaze. Let sit for 30 minutes to allow glaze to firm into a glossy, custard-like shell.

 

FAQ – Custard Glazed Donuts

  • Yes—just replace self-raising flour with a gluten-free self-raising blend. The texture may be slightly different but still tasty!

  • Absolutely—soy, oat, or regular dairy milk can be swapped in as needed.

  • Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate for up to 4 days. Best enjoyed fresh!

  • Yes, but you’ll lose the cinnamon donut flavour boost. Replace with 1 extra tbsp of flour if omitting.

  • Definitely! If you don’t have donut molds, bake them as mini muffins instead. Just keep an eye on baking time.

  • You can freeze them without the glaze. Just wrap individually and freeze for up to 2 months. Glaze after thawing for best results.
