📝 Preparation Steps
1
Chocolate Donuts
2
Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C and grease a donut pan.
3
In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar and oil. Stir in the egg and then the buttermilk/kefir.
large egg (room temperature)1
4
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
5
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until a few streaks of flour are left. Then gradually mix in the hot water just until combined. The batter will be slightly runny.
6
Pour the batter into a piping bag, cut off the tip, and fill each donut mold about ⅔ full. It should make 8-9 donuts depending on the pan's depth.
7
Bake donuts on the middle rack of the oven until the tops are puffed up and spring back lightly when you gently press on them (about ⏱️ 13-17 minutes).Note: If you're using a flexible silicone donut pan, I recommend placing it on top of a metal baking sheet while in the oven.
8
Let the donuts cool in the pan until they're just warm to the touch, then transfer them to a wire rack. While they're cooling, make the chocolate ganache.
9
Chocolate Ganache
10
Place the chocolate chips in the bottom of a small/medium bowl.
11
Heat the heavy whipping cream in the microwave or over the stove (stirring every ⏱️ 20 seconds) just until it starts to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips so they're covered completely, then place a plate over top to trap the steam for ⏱️ 5 minutes.
12
Using a rubber spatula, stir the chocolate/cream in a circular motion starting in the center. Continue to stir until it's a smooth chocolate ganache.
13
Assemble the Donuts
14
Dunk the donuts in the ganache and top with sprinkles, one at a time. Let them dry a wire rack.
