    You will need: Mini doughnut pan (Get it here!)

    1 Cup all purpose flour

    1/4 Cup sugar
    1 Teaspoon baking powder
    1/2 Teaspoon cinnamon
    1/2 Teaspoon salt
    1 Teaspoon vanilla
    1 Egg
    1 Tablespoon butter, melted
    1/4 Cup Half & Half (I used Land o’ Lakes)

    Cinnamon & Sugar coating:

    2 Tablespoons butter, melted
    1/4 Cup granulated sugar
    1 Tablespoon cinnamon

    1. Preheat oven to 350 & spray your mini doughnut pan with a nonstick cooking spray

    2. Mix dry ingredients together in a bowl (I used an electric mixer)

    3. Mix vanilla, egg, butter and half and half together in another bowl

    4. Combine the two mixtures and stir/mix well (about 1 minute using electric mixer)

    5. Put the dough into the pan using a tablespoon – put 1 Tbsp of batter into each cavity (be careful – less is more! Don’t overfill…)

    6. Bake for 10 minutes

    7. While your doughnuts are baking you will make the coating. Melt the extra butter in a bowl and blend the sugar with the cinnamon in another bowl.

    8.  Remove the doughnuts from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.

    9. As you take the doughnuts out of the pan, quickly dip them in the butter (just enough to make the sugar stick – do not saturate the doughnuts) and then the sugar/cinnamon mixture.

    10. Eat them. :]

    *This recipe yields 24 mini doughnuts.

    1 3/4 cup flour

    1/4 cup oil (or 1/2 cup applesauce)

    1/2 cup sugar (or 1/4 cup splenda)

    3/4 cup fresh blueberries

    1 egg

    2 teaspoons baking powder

    3/4 cup milk

    1/4 tsp salt

    1/2 tsp vanilla

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

    1. Mix flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar.

    2. In another bowl, beat the egg, add milk, vanilla and oil/applesauce. Add to flour mixture. Stir until it looks lumpy.

    3. Fold in blueberries.

    4. Spoon into baking cups in a mini muffing pan using a tablespoon.

    5. Bake in oven (for approx.10-12 minutes) until the tops are golden brown and the center is cooked through (check with a toothpick/fork.)

    If you use the Splenda and applesauce as substitutes for sugar and oil, each mini muffin is approximately 35 calories.

    Hope you enjoy this,
