INGREDIENTS

  • All-purpose flour: 2 cups, for the base of the donut batter.
  • Granulated sugar: ¼ cup, to sweeten the donuts.
  • Baking powder: 2 ½ teaspoons, to help the donuts rise.
  • Salt: ½ teaspoon, to balance the sweetness.
  • Whole milk: ½ cup, for moisture and a tender crumb.
  • Large eggs: 2, to bind the ingredients and add richness.
  • Unsalted butter: ¼ cup, melted, to add moisture and richness.
  • Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon, to enhance the flavor of the donuts.
  • Strawberry jam: 1 cup, to add flavor to the cream filling.
  • Heavy cream: 1 cup, for the strawberry cream filling.
  • Powdered sugar: ¼ cup, to sweeten the cream filling.
  • Chopped strawberries: ½ cup, for a burst of fresh strawberry flavor in the filling.
  • White chocolate: ½ cup, melted, for drizzling over the donuts.
  • Pink food coloring: Optional, for a fun twist on the white chocolate drizzle.

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with non-stick spray.
Step 2:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3:
In a separate bowl, mix the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined.
Step 4:
Fill the donut pan halfway with the batter. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean. Let the donuts cool completely before filling and decorating.
Step 5:
To make the strawberry cream filling, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar in a bowl until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the strawberry jam and chopped strawberries.
Step 6:
Slice each cooled donut in half horizontally. Spoon or pipe the strawberry cream into the center, and place the top half back on the donut.
Step 7:
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the top of each donut. If desired, add a few drops of pink food coloring to the melted white chocolate for a fun, colorful twist.
Step 8:
Let the donuts set for a few minutes before serving and enjoy your sweet, creamy, and delicious treats!

Serving and Storage Tips

  • Store the donuts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days to keep the filling fresh.
  • For best results, enjoy the donuts the same day they’re made to experience the full creaminess of the strawberry filling.

Helpful Notes

  • Chill the heavy cream in the refrigerator before whipping to ensure it whips up quickly and holds its shape.
  • Make sure the donuts are completely cool before slicing and filling them to prevent the filling from melting.

Tips from Well-Known Chefs

  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of melted white chocolate and strawberry puree as a glaze for the donuts instead of the regular drizzle.
