Red Vines Donut Holes
Ingredients
- 1⅓ cups all purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 egg
- 12 RED VINES® Original Red Twists, chopped into small pieces
- ½ cup water
- 1 tsp sugar
- For Topping:
- ¼ cup melted butter
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tbs cinnamon
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375F degrees and spray a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a smaller bowl, combine the milk, vanilla extract, melted butter, and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix to fully combine.
- Add a tablespoon of donut batter to each mini muffin tin slot. Bake for 16 to 17 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a donut hole comes out clean. When cool enough to handle, transfer the donut holes to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- While the donut holes bake, make the filling. Combine the Red Vines Original Twists, water, and sugar in a skillet over medium-low heat. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the Red Vines have completely softened and broken down, about 10 minutes. Scoop the melted Red Vines into a piping bag fitted with a circular tip.
- Using a sharp paring knife, make a small “X” in the bottom of each donut hole and fill with the melted Red Vines. Melt the butter for the topping in a small bowl and combine the sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl.
- Brush each donut hole with melted butter and roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Enjoy immediately.
