There is Nothing More Adorable Than Mini Donuts

We interrupt Pies in July to bring you this very special message:

A few weeks ago I bought a mini donut pan, because... well, why not?? Then I tried to find some vegan donut recipes, and there aren't many to choose from. 

I tried to make some chocolate cake donuts, and I wasn't too impressed. 

Then I found this recipe on Vegan Yum Yum for not-chocolate cake donuts. It was repeated on several other blogs and declared as being supremely delicious. That's always a good sign. 

I may have put too many sprinkles on them. But is that ever really a problem?

The real problem was getting them out of the house before I ate them all. A few made it out alive. 

On a completely unrelated note, Yes, my nails are teal blue. It's called Mermaid to Order. So sue me. Let's get back to donuts. 

They're pretty tasty. Light, moist, and with a little spice, almost like an apple cider donut. Not my favorite donut, but a pretty good place to start. Once I perfect a vegan chocolate cake donut, I'll report back here immediately. Until then, these will do. 

And I mean, really, look how freakin' adorable they are. MINI DONUTS. With Sprinkles. 

For once, I followed a recipe EXACTLY, so just go to Vegan Yum Yum and do what she did. She was pretty thorough in her instructions. Then try not to eat them all.
