Thank you for posting such a wide range of baked donut recipes. I appreciate being able to bake healthier breakfast treats.
I used 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract and found it way too strong, almost impossible to eat (even with a simple icing). The cake part had an excellent texture and was visually appealing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ on that part!
If I were to make these again, I would add a drop of peppermint extract at a time, tasting the batter. Actually, moving toward, I will be aware that we may be sensitive to this flavor.
