Baked Doughnuts

I had a thought about making baked doughnuts, and it stayed with me for a few days until I had to do something about it. So, I rooted out my pan, still with the wrapper on, and trawled the internet looking for a recipe.
I found one that sounded quite good, no yeast, but eggs, and baking powder, so feeling hopeful off I went on a baking expedition. Below is the mixture ready for cooking, it is quite thick, like a good batter, and looks good.

When the first batch came out of the oven, I tossed them in a sugar and cinnamon mix, 3tsps caster sugar to 1 tsp cinnamon. They felt quite cakey, and smelt incredibly good. Here they are just out of the oven.

I also thought I would try out my new silicone cake tray, it only bakes six at a time like my doughnut one, but it is not supposed to need greasing.

Hmm, maybe a touch of grease might have helped, or a little longer in the oven for the bottoms to brown a tad more. Will try that next time. So, here are the finished items, they taste lovely, and I will make them again, I just obviously need to practise.
