Glazed Cereal Baked Cake Donuts
Hello Everyone, I have a fun breakfast/sweet snack/brunch recipe for you: Glazed Cereal Baked Cake Donuts.
What a great way to enjoy your favorite nostalgic cereal, right?
This is the first donut recipe to grace Life’s Little Sweet recipe index but certainly will not be the last because donuts are quick, easy and fun to make and can be customized in an infinite number of ways.
The cereal that tops these Glazed Cereal Baked Cake Donuts is Malt-O-Meal Fruity Stars which add a tasty & tart topping to the donuts.
Make sure when making the recipe that you stick to the ingredient list and not make any substitutions because the results will come out different.
We want soft, fluffy baked donuts!
About Malt-O-Meal
Malt-O-Meal is a bagged cereal and they offer 33+ varieties.
Some of those favorites include Cinnamon Toasters, Berry Colossal Crunch, Frosted Mini Spooners, and S’mores.
I learned that they have a ‘Love it or it is free!’ taste guarantee [Details available on pack].
They never have any high-fructose corn syrup in any of their cereals and they are available in a handful of sizes.
I picked up Malt-O-Meal Fruity Stars, Malt-O-Meal Cookies & Cream, and Malt-O-Meal French Toasters in the cereal aisle at Walmart.

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F. Grease a donut pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together dry ingredients cake flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and kosher salt.
- Add buttermilk, lightly beaten eggs, and melted butter. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix!
- Scoop batter into a large food-grade freezer bag, cut the end, and pipe into the donut pan, filling each cavity 2/3 full. The recipe yield is 12 donuts but I can get 15 donuts oftentimes.
- Bake donuts for 7-9 minutes. Check at 7 minutes to see if the tops spring back, if they do, then you know they are done. Allow cooling for 4-5 minutes before removing it to a wire cooling rack. Dip the cooled donuts into the Vanilla Coconut Icing glaze and then sprinkle the cereal over the tops. Donuts are best served fresh, enjoy!
