Donut maker

Directions

Whisk together eggs, milk, melted butter, lemon zest and juice, and cake mix in a large bowl until smooth.
Preheat donut maker. Fill molds to the top with donut batter and close lid. Bake for 3 1/2-4 minutes, or until donuts are golden brown. Use a small spatula or fork to remove finished donuts from the donut maker, and set on a plate or rack to cool.
In a small bowl, add in powdered sugar, lemon juice and zest. Stir until fully combined.
Dip cooled donuts into icing. Sprinkle with candied lemon peel and place on a sheet pan or rack to harden.

Recipe Note

Pro tips:

One side of each donuts will be golden brown, and the other side will be cake- white. We made the golden brown side the “top” side of our muffin, for easier dipping.
