Easy Baked Raspberry Donuts with White Chocolate
These baked white chocolate raspberry donuts are soft, fruity cake donuts drizzled with white chocolate; an easy homemade breakfast or sweet treat!
We have already had 2 snowstorms. In October. Not quite sure what that means for us in terms of how long winter is going to last, so I guess we need to start battening down the hatches!
Matt and I have been talking about what we can do to make winter more fun this year. And what did we settle on? An inflatable hot tub. Yes, you read that right. I found a hot tub that can be inflated. And, it’s utterly amazing.
It was like Christmas morning for the boys when they stepped into the hot tub. We were able to put it on our deck, so we can literally take 2 steps out of our dining room and be in the hot tub – talk about convenient!

I love donuts. I will never turn down an opportunity to eat a donut (and I may steal a bite or two of Jack or Will’s donut). When you like donuts as much as I do, sometimes you want your donut to be a little healthier (but still taste good)!

What Makes these Donuts Healthier?
These donuts are baked instead of fried. But, don’t worry, they still taste delicious! You still get to enjoy a delicious donut but with a few less calories. Although, lets be honest, you definitely need to go for the fried chocolate glazed donut every once in awhile too.
how do i keep baked donuts moist?
Baked donuts can dry out quickly, but there are a few ways that you can try to keep this from happening. First and foremost, do not overbake the donuts. If you bake the donuts too long, all of the water will evaporate from the donuts, thus making them extremely dry.
Another thing you can do is to drizzle the white chocolate on the donuts immediately after taking them out of the oven. This traps moisture inside the donut before it can escape.
Lastly, store the baked donuts in an airtight container so that it blocks dry air from getting inside. This will help the donuts to stay moist and fresh.
