Glazed Doughnut Muffins By Kelly Miller • July9,2013 • Updated January 24, 2022 • 11 Comments 11.0K 93 Jump to Recipe Glazed Doughnut Muffins taste just like glazed baked doughnuts – without all the hassle! This is going to sound a bit crazy coming from an admitted baked good addict, but doughnuts have never really been my thing. I know, right? We’ve always had doughnuts around my house growing up, too. Well at least when company was staying over night, haha! I have to say though, glazed doughnuts are pretty awesome. If I’m forced to eat a doughnut, that’s the one I’m going to choose every time. I remember driving to Dunkin Donuts on the morning of my birthday every year to get a box of Munchkins (doughnut holes) for my class. That was a HUGE thing in elementary school, let me tell you. I was always disappointed when it came to the bottom of the box after I had given them out to my class that the only ones left were the chocolate glazed and the blueberry. Yuck. I went ahead with these Glazed Doughnut Muffins and they totally ROCK. I would say it’s definitely a muffin flavored like a baked doughnut, with an amazing homemade glaze. Even better than the real thing, in my humble non-doughnut-liking opinion. This is for sure on my list to make for a church potluck! I double dipped the muffins and that was even more fabulous! What a great breakfast for guests, huh? If you liked this Glazed Doughnut Muffins recipe, leave a rating and a comment below this post!
