17 Reviews of Bread Machine Doughnuts

Growing up, my mom used the canned biscuit dough to make "homemade" donuts. Living overseas, we can't get that sort of dough, so I've had to learn how to "really" cook. I was thrilled to find a bread machine recipe to try and they came out great! I don't have a true donut cutter, so I had to use a small plastic cup turned upside down to cut the donut and then a twist top from a bottle of soda to make the middle hole. I was able to get 32 donuts from this recipe, but will probably use a larger cup next time. I baked 1/2 the recipe and fried the rest. If watching calories, the baked were good, but the fried were definitely tasier (surprised?). I used Kittencal's Easy Bakery-Style Donut Glaze (#179685) for a quick glaze. This made the donuts even better, and I'll probably continue to experiment with other glazes since there seem to be so many yummy ones on the 'Zaar. Now, cooking notes: After cutting the donuts, I let them rise for 45 minutes (instead of 30). For the baked version, I baked them at 450F, but only had to leave them in for 5 minutes.

This recipe is just great! The doughnuts taste wonderful and it is SO easy to do. I used the Donut Glaze (#121968) recipe by tearoseberry and it added the perfect touch. Definitely not a recipe for someone who it counting calories when you deep fry them. I have not tried baking them yet.

My family loved these! I made doughnuts and doughnut holes, then put powdered sugar on some and glaze on the rest. I love my bread machine...thanks for sharing this recipe!

These were so easy and very light and delicious. My son informed me that we now never have to go buy doughnuts because these were the best ever!

I was so happy and proud of myself after making this recipe. The doughnuts were like they were from a bakery. I filled them with raspberry jam using a pastry bag. I also substituted the milk for soy milk, and they turned out great. Will definitely make again!

Excellent! Thank you Lvs2Cook! I will never buy donuts again! lol This was so easy to make, using the bread machine rocks! I will be making these from now on. I enjoyed these with plain glaze and chocolate glaze (I prefered the plain glazed myself) and I want to try the jelly filling next time. Anyone ever try that?

This was my first attempt at making donuts in my bread machine. They are fantastic. I used a simple glaze of icing sugar, vanilla and hot water and they simply melt in your mouth.Thank you for a great recipe.
