Why have one giant donut when you could have several small bite-sized versions instead? Donut holes are so adorable, completely delicious, and easy to eat.
This recipe is perfect for springtime, the sun is just starting to come out and we’re moving away from winter-warmer recipes to something lighter and fruitier.
And light and fruity definitely describe these scrumptious donut holes.
The batter of the donut is soft as a feather and the filling is super sweet and tart, and then to finish it off it is then drenched in a sugar glaze to give it that extra hint of sweetness.
While these may sound like they come with a large side of gluttonous guilt, you’ll be happy to know that these donuts are baked and not deep-fried, so they’re not quite as bad as they seem.
So, only a medium side of gluttonous guilt at most.
However, all your worries will melt away as soon as you taste these seriously addictive donuts.
The vanilla donut is so airy and light and then it’s dusted with delicious cinnamon sugar, and then once you get inside there’s a generous portion of thick and velvety Nutella waiting to tantalize your taste buds.
Pillowy bite-sized donuts filled with sticky and sweet cherries?
Um, yes, please. We’ll be deep-frying these bad boys, but I personally still choose to think of them as healthy – I’m getting one of my five a day, right?
They’re sweet, fruity, and just a little bit chewy and have just a subtle hint of tartness to them too.
Once you pop one of these in your mouth, trust me, you won’t be able to stop. I’d recommend doubling your ingredients to make a bigger batch – they disappear quickly!
Delightful, rich, and delicious chocolate donut holes have never been easier to make!
This recipe uses just 10 ingredients for the donut – all of which are kitchen staples you likely have in your home right now, and the glaze uses just two simple ingredients. Plus these can be ready to go in just under 20 minutes.
And boy do they taste delicious. They are so moist and tender, and totally chocolatey.
The glaze gives them an extra crunch which elevates the texture to a whole new level, and of course, the sprinkles on the top give it that pretty appearance.
These cinnamon-style donut holes ooze a boozy custard filling that is lip-licking delicious.
This recipe calls for Baileys but you could definitely substitute it for any Irish liqueur. The flavor profile is so amazing here that you’ll eat them by the bucket load.
The custard is so thick and creamy and the donut is fluffy and light.
And, of course, you can’t forget to make a hearty portion of butterscotch sauce to really tie everything together.
If you follow the recipe, you’ll drizzle the sauce over the top, but personally, I think it’s much better to dunk them deep into the sweet and scrumptious sauce.
Calling all sweet tooths, this one is definitely for you. For this scrumptious treat you’ll be ditching the regular donut holes for chocolate ones.
Yum. And then as you bite into it, you’ll be met with an explosion of ooey and gooey caramel sauce!

PB&J sandwiches are a classic staple of any lunchbox, right? It’s a renowned flavor combo that is loved by all, so how could it go wrong in a donut? It simply couldn’t.
And honestly, if you have trouble getting your kids out of the bed for school in the morning, nothing will get them running to the kitchen like knowing they have these waiting for them for breakfast!
Donuts for breakfast? I know, but hear me out, they’re baked so they’re really not as unhealthy as they sound, and peanut butter and jelly are hardly offending fillings. So why not?
If you’re not one for super fancy flavors, or want some donut holes that are a little less messy, then these chocolate chip versions are a great option to choose.
There’s no surprise center in these moreish donut holes, nope, just a ton of chocolate chips smothered throughout the batter to ensure a sugar hit and a fun texture.
These are a great on-the-go breakfast or snack option. And they’re so simple to make and they keep for a pretty fair amount of time.
At room temperature, they’ll last 3 days, 5-6 in the refrigerator, and a whopping 3 months when stored in the freezer!
These donut holes are insanely good. Just when you thought Oreos had been used in every way possible…here comes a new recipe for the fans of the chocolate and cream cookie.
And this recipe is a thing of dreams.
Inside each fluffy and airy donut is a mini-oreo and then they are drenched in a glaze made from the creamy stuffing of Oreos before they are sprinkled with, you guessed it, even more oreo crumbs.
I have a feeling these might be quite the hit at home. Best make a double batch!
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Sometimes simple is very effective. If you’re not one for bold and big flavors, then these cinnamon sugar donut holes are the perfect option.

You can also choose whether or not to create the caramel sauce for dipping.
I would always recommend it but if you’re not much for super sweet things, these delicious donuts taste perfect as they are.
