Ingredients

  • For the Doughnuts:
  • 1 cup flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • For the Chocolate Glaze:
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare the doughnut pan with cooking spray.

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, once the butter begins to brown and smells nutty, remove from the heat and pour into a small bowl. In a two cup measure, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and two tablespoons of the brown butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stir until just incorporated.

Spoon the batter into the prepared doughnut pan. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Let the doughnuts cool on a wire rack.

Whisk together the powdered sugar, cocoa, milk and vanilla until smooth. Dip each doughnut into the glaze and immediately top with sprinkles, if desired.
