- 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 dash nutmeg
- 1 egg
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2/3 cups plain greek yogurt
- 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
- 1 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup milk
- sprinkles

These look amazing!!! Can you make these without a donut pan? And can you substitute regular plain yogurt or sour cream instead of Greek yogurt?
Stephanie Brubaker says
You could use mini muffin tin! And yes, regular yogurt or sour cream would work too. Enjoy!

I just made the dough and it’s really thick…not pourable at all. Is it supposed to be that way? I had to dollop the donut mix in the pan by teaspoons full.

Thank you for the recipe. It is very kind of you to share.
As someone else noted, the batter is rather thick, the ratio of dry to wet ingredients seems off. I had to add at least a cup of milk to mix the dry ingredients.
Greek Yoghurt is normally as thick as whipped cream, so that doesn’t help loosen the mix at all. Perhaps the type you use is watery?
Is there a chance that the quantity on one of the ingredients was transferred wrongly?
Once the milk was added, an extra two teaspoons of Baking powder, we had a fair result.
Once again thank you for sharing.

The recipe is correct, The donut batter is thick and sticky, but that is normal! 🙂
