Glazed Donut Muffins
Healthier and just as pretty as a donut, Glazed Donut Muffins are heavenly!
Glazed Donut Muffins
We enjoy hosting many of our family and friends during the busy summer months. We like to serve a little something extra for breakfast, pancakes, waffles, or muffins are always a good choice.
These yummy muffins taste like doughnuts and require a lot less preparation. Mix them up, and spoon the batter into a muffin pan. While Glazed Donut Muffins are baking, I scramble some eggs, squeeze some juice, and then serve breakfast with love.
I also like to take them to friends with fresh fruit for a luncheon or when a sick mama needs some tender loving care, they are always appreciated. You’ll find these muffins are just magical!
In a medium mixing bowl, prepare the glaze by mixing together the melted butter, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla and hot water until smooth. When muffins have cooled slightly, dip the muffin crown into the glaze and allow the glaze to harden. Now repeat again, giving them a double dip, just for good measure!
Serve warm or cool on a rack or wrap them up, airtight. Muffins will keep at room temperature for about a day. Makes 12.
Go ahead, make some magic muffins at your house! Thanks for visiting me.

I love the idea of the taste sensation of a doughnut without the fried dough. The cinnamon-nutmeggy tastes is one of my older daughter’s favorites. She would love these.
I’ll bet they would be good as mini muffins and in a brunch buffet.
Great idea Debbie. Thanks
Renee, These muffins will be on the menu for sure!!!!! I will get lots of kisses from my family! Thanks for sharing this great yummy treat at ON THE MENU MONDAY!
These look SO amazing, thank you for sharing!
They sound great and love the “double dipped” look:@)
These look so so good! What a great treat for friends and family. Sending hugs from the midwest!!!
Yummy! Makes me wish I wasn’t so much of a night owl so I could come over for breakfast!!!
I can see Renee, how these would be a HUGE hit! You always have something fun and delicious! Oh, I forgot, magical!
Oh I am in BIG trouble. These look delicious. 🙂
Wow! Love this, please share it! Link it up with me on my Wow Us Wednesday, ok? Over at http://www.familyhomeandlife.com
Sounds like the perfect morning! I am coming to visit! Of course I am going to take mine dipped in frosting – I am such a frosting girl. When I get everyone home, I need to try these. It would be dangerous to make them and consume them all myself!
These look wonderful! I love that you double dipped them! Just perfect =o)
Yum ~ one of the few times that double dipping is allowed! lol
‘hugs from afar’
These sound yummy! I have only ever made doughnuts once and thought ‘never again’ as I don’t really like to fry. I will definitely give these a try.
What a wonderful way to start the day! Your family is very lucky to have to serving up wonderful breakfasts like this. A muffin that tastes like a donut and double-dipped sounds delicious!
I love doughnuts, but never make them so this would be a special treat. In this circumstance double dipping is encouraged.
Oh, my but these look delicious. I don’t think they are on my diet, but think I’ll make them anyway. LOL
The double dip puts these muffins over the top! 🙂
