In this article, we’ll share a mouthwatering recipe for Nutella filled baked donuts that will have you coming back for seconds (and maybe even thirds).
The Ingredients You’ll Need:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Nutella (for filling)
- Optional toppings: powdered sugar, chopped nuts, sprinkles
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fill Donut Pan: Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.
- Add Nutella Filling: Place a small dollop of Nutella in the center of each donut. You can use a piping bag or simply spoon it in.
- Bake: Bake the donuts in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, you can dust them with powdered sugar, sprinkle with chopped nuts, or add your favorite toppings.
Tips for Success:
- Don’t overmix the batter, as this can result in tough donuts.
- Be sure to grease your donut pan well to prevent the donuts from sticking.
- If you don’t have a donut pan, you can use a mini muffin pan instead to make donut holes.
- Get creative with your toppings! From crushed cookies to drizzled caramel, the possibilities are endless.
Conclusion:
Nutella filled baked donuts are the perfect combination of indulgent and comforting. Whether you enjoy them for breakfast, as a midday snack, or as a dessert after dinner, they’re sure to hit the spot. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can whip up a batch of these delicious treats to share with family and friends.
