Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (150g) plain or glazed donut holes
- 1 cup (240ml) milk of choice (whole, skim, almond, oat, or dairy-free alternative)
- 2 tablespoons (about 20g) rainbow sprinkles
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) butter or oil (optional, for toasting)
- Optional toppings: honey or maple syrup drizzle, cinnamon sprinkle, chopped nuts
Instructions
- Prep the donut holes by cutting any larger ones in half to ensure even toasting.
- Heat butter or oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add donut holes in a single layer and toast for 3-4 minutes, stirring every minute until golden and crispy.
- Transfer toasted donut holes to a serving bowl.
- Pour milk over the donut holes, just enough to soak but not drown them.
- Sprinkle rainbow sprinkles generously on top.
- Add optional toppings like honey, maple syrup, cinnamon, or chopped nuts if desired.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the crispy texture before the donut holes get soggy.
Notes
Toast donut holes gently over medium heat to avoid burning. Add sprinkles last to maintain their crunch. Serve immediately for best texture. For gluten-free, use gluten-free donut holes; for dairy-free, use plant-based milk alternatives.
