Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup strawberry jam
- 1/2 cup white chocolate, melted
Leavening and Seasoning:
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping and Filling:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped strawberries
- Pink food coloring (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the oven at 350F (175C) and coat a donut pan thoroughly with non-stick cooking spray.
- Combine all dry ingredients in a spacious mixing bowl, blending flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt using a whisk until evenly distributed.
- Separately, whisk milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well integrated.
- Slowly incorporate wet ingredients into dry mixture, stirring minimally to prevent over-mixing and maintain a light texture.
- Distribute batter evenly into donut pan, filling each cavity approximately halfway. Bake for 10-12 minutes until a testing skewer emerges clean when inserted.
- Allow donuts to cool completely on a wire rack, ensuring they reach room temperature before further preparation.
- Create strawberry cream by whipping heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks develop, then gently fold in strawberry jam and finely chopped strawberries.
- Slice each donut horizontally, creating a top and bottom section for filling.
- Generously pipe or spoon strawberry cream mixture into the center of each donut, then carefully reassemble the halves.
- Melt white chocolate and drizzle elegantly over the filled donuts, optionally adding pink food coloring for visual appeal.
- Let donuts rest briefly to allow chocolate and cream to set before serving.
Notes
- Customize the donut batter by swapping all-purpose flour with gluten-free flour blend for those with wheat sensitivities.
- Ensure strawberries are finely chopped to prevent chunky filling and create smooth, even cream texture.
- Use room temperature ingredients like eggs and milk to help batter blend seamlessly and produce lighter, fluffier donuts.
- Chill the cream filling for 15-20 minutes before piping to maintain structured shape and prevent runny consistency.
