The Baking Challenge // Week 8: Baked Rose Doughnuts

^ Yum ^
^ Drool ^

Last night taxes were done. So I am sure you can imagine how I feel right now. But no one wants to hear about my taxes and I can’t even deal with all of that right now. So lets ignore this important topic and talk about something more important (and tastier): doughnuts.

Yup. It happened again and I am not sorry.

This weekend I decided to try a rose flavored doughnut. I love rose macarons so why not a rose doughnut. The outcome: amazing. Especially after dealing with taxes. Just makes things better.

Rose syrup isn’t the easiest thing to come across so you can order it here.

Make 12 doughnuts

Ingredients

• Doughnuts
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1 tbsp + 1/2 tsp rose syrup
• 1 tbsp butter, melted
• 1 egg
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
• Icing
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp rose syrup
• 1 tsp water
• 2 drops red food coloring

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Grease doughnut pan.
2. Mix buttermilk, rose syrup, melted butter, and egg. Once mixed add flour, sugar, and baking powder. Mix.
3. Pour batter into doughnut pans. Fill about 2/3 of the way.
4. Bake for 7-8 minutes. Doughnuts will be golden.
5. Once done remove and let cool in the baking pan for 3-4 minutes. Remove and place on wire rack.
6. When cooling prepare rose flavored icing. In a bowl add powdered sugar, rose syrup, and water. Mix until smooth. If you feel that the icing is too thick add water in small increments until a glaze-like consistency. Glaze doughnuts.
