If there’s a morning meeting at work, someone inevitably brings in donuts and coffee. I hear some of you saying, “What’s wrong with that?” Well, I’m sort of picky about my donuts. And I’ve already had breakfast and don’t need a donut, but some people don’t seem to care about that and have a couple of donuts.

 

If I have a donut, I’ll eat half for dessert and maybe half for an afternoon snack. Or sometimes I’ll hang on to it for the next day and have it for dessert then. But again, I’m picky about my donuts. And I’m not really a huge fan of them for the most part.

 
I’m with my mother on this sentiment.
 



 

For us, donuts just leave a coating of grease all over your mouth. That’s not really something I’m a huge fan of first thing in the morning or in the afternoons. Actually, that’s not really something I’m a huge fan of at any time. Which why all those recipes for fat bombs just makes me cringe. I imagine them tasting like me eating a donut. But, I could be wrong.

 

I’ve had this donut pan for a few years now. I was hoping it would be like a muffin tin and have 12 wells, but it has 6. I really should get a second pan so I don’t have to bake in batches. I think I’ve only used a handful of times? And for maybe one or two sweet donuts? I vaguely remember a gree chile and cheddar cornbread donut and, of course, the scrambled egg donuts for bagel sandwiches.

 



 

No, that’s not what I called them in the post. They were make ahead bagel eggs. The problem with eggs in a bagel sandwich is the hole in the bagel. Everything wants to just fall through. The eggs I cooked in the donut pan didn’t do that. I thought it was pretty darned brilliant.

 
Just like these donuts. They’re pretty darned brilliant!!
 

We received a generous sampling of Door County Coffee. All them fall style flavors like maple, bourbon, autumn spice, and caramel apple. Since I know the hubs is pretty picky about his coffee flavors (we’re a picky pair, right?) I have been making the coffee for me in the mornings and leaving him the regular coffee to have when he gets up. Of course, if we get up about the same time, I use the regular stuff, but I’ve been enjoying the various flavors.

 



 

When I opened the maple, it reminded me of those maple glazed donuts at one of the meetings recently. That’s when it hit me! Make some maple coffee donuts! I could put coffee in the batter and make the glaze out of coffee. It was a perfect idea.

 

And it was a perfect idea! The donuts came out of the oven and smelled amazing. I tasted one and they did taste just like maple coffee. I couldn’t believe how perfect they were. And then we fast forward to the glaze part.

 



 

I seriously struggle with buttercream and glazes. I think the glaze is thick enough, but it just ran off the donut. But if I make it thick enough to stick like I think it should, it just tastes like all sugar to me. You can see my dilemma in this situation. And it doesn’t help that I’m not a huge sweets person. Like straight up sugar with coffee sweet. It hurts my teeth!

 

While I realize this probably isn’t the best thing to talk about in my post, but I’m a real person. I’m not all, “Oh my everything came out Snow White perfect! And the birds did the dishes.” Oh no. I’m all, “Crap! Why isn’t this stuff sticking? Why is it all pooled on the parchment UNDER the donuts?”

 
Because I’m a real person and share my experiences.
 



 

Hopefully, someone else will share the same frustrations I have and we can lament and hopefully perfect our glaze and buttercream skills together. Volunteers? During the lamentation process we can share our strengths and hopefully teach other a thing or two. At least that’s my goal here. Teaching people it’s okay to make a mess, mess things up, make a cassou-fail that is totally inedible and you have to throw it out. Yes, that post exists. You’ll just have to find it. I’m not linking to it. LOL

 

This is definitely one of those stream of consciousness posts. Can you tell? At some point I should get back to these donuts. Like, maybe now?

 

So, while the donuts themselves came out oh so delicious and just the way I hoped they would taste, the glaze not so much. It smelled delicious and tasted decent. But just didn’t stick. So, make yours thicker than you think. Unless you have experience with glaze and know exactly what consistency to make it. Then, have at it!

 



 

I took these in to work and ate one. Because they’re fricking delicious anyway. One of the CWs popped by to see what I had. She said they smelled awesome. Because they do. She didn’t stop by to tell me how she liked it. I’ll have to remember to ask her tomorrow. But the youngling saw them and pledged to try one later. He’s been eating the rest of the pumpkin pie macaron from last week. He cracks me up. I’m sure he’ll tell me how he likes them. He’s very opinionated that way.

 

As a recap, I suck a glaze and buttercream. But I don’t suck at these donuts or macaron (minus the buttercream filling). I contemplated putting some maple syrup in the batter but thought not. Sometimes, I don’t want my donuts to be super sweet. Especially if the glaze has to be 90% powdered sugar and 10% coffee. You’ll want the donuts to be more savory then sweet. Unless you like your teeth to hurt. Then…

 

Have at it!
