Boxed Doughnuts


Definitely a work-in-progress thing, but this will do if you're aching for a good old fashioned cake doughnut.

1 box Duncan Hines Spice Cake mix
3 tbsp flaxseed meal
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 1/3 cup water

1: Preheat oven to 350 F. 
2: Prepare egg replacement by mixing 3 tablespoons flaxseed meal with 9 tbsp water and set aside for a few minutes until it thickens.
 3: Mix all ingredients together in a mixer or by hand until smooth
 4: I started out mixing it in a bowl, but decided to try it in the Ninja blender with the cookie mixer accessory
 5: I baked them for about 18 minutes, but I must warn to let them cool completely before trying to remove them from the pan
This is a good way to make quick doughnuts, but I prefer to make them from scratch normally.  Nonetheless, my housemate ate them all.  :)

Another lesson I learned tonight: boxed cake mix does work in a mini donut griddle either:
This is after three attempts with different cook times...
