Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat the oven

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

2
Prepare the donut pan

Grease a donut pan with butter or cooking spray.

3
Mix dry ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

4
Cream butter and sugar

In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

5
Add peanut butter

Add peanut butter to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined and creamy.

6
Add eggs and vanilla

Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla.

7
Alternate dry ingredients and milk

Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients in three parts, alternating with milk. Begin and end with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined after each addition.

8
Fill the donut pan

Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full. Alternatively, transfer batter to a piping bag and pipe into the pan.

9
Bake the donuts

Bake for 10-12 minutes until donuts spring back when touched. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.

10
Cool the donuts

Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack.

11
Make the glaze

In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, peanut butter, and milk until smooth. Add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency.

12
Glaze the donuts

Dip the top of each cooled donut into the glaze. Return to the wire rack to allow glaze to set.

13
Serve

Serve once glaze has set. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
