How to make doughnuts in the oven?

Make yourselves baked doughnuts!

They taste delicious and you can fill them with your favorite jam, preserve, or cream. One baked doughnut from my recipe has a little over 160 calories – that’s more than half less than a traditional doughnut! To make doughnuts, you first need to prepare yeast dough – similar to traditional doughnuts. Only instead of frying the doughnuts in deep fat, we will bake them in the oven.

At what temperature to bake doughnuts?

I recommend baking them in an oven preheated to 170 degrees Celsius and in convection mode.

What to bake doughnuts in? You don’t need any special molds to bake doughnuts. A large baking sheet from the oven lined with baking paper is enough.

How long to bake doughnuts in the oven?

Bake the doughnuts for about 10-12 minutes – until they are nicely browned. Every oven bakes a little differently, so adjust the baking time to your oven if necessary.

Should doughnuts be baked with filling?

I baked the dough itself and only filled them with preserve after baking. This prevented the filling from flowing out and softening the dough. So if you have a piping bag or a confectionery syringe at home that you can use to fill the doughnuts, then add the filling to the baked doughnuts. When to fill the doughnuts? We fill the doughnuts when they are still warm, but no longer hot.
