Oreo Explosion Donuts
I don’t know about you, but I love donuts! I also love Oreos! Oreo explosion donuts put two of my favorite things together making a dense, delicious masterpiece I can eat at any point in the day!
The topping is made from white chocolate and crushed Oreos. They are cakey and the best part about these donuts is that they are homemade!
One of my favorite family traditions growing up was getting donuts on Saturday mornings that we could eat before our Saturday chores. I would have loved to have been able to make Oreo explosion donuts every weekend! It’s a tradition I want to start with my own family. There is so much family bonding that can come from spending time in the kitchen. That time is even better spent when you’re making something as delicious as these donuts!

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I don’t have a donut pan?
I know donut pans aren’t something that everyone has in their kitchen. Don’t worry! You can use a muffin pan instead! You’ll also need some tin foil. Just mold the tin foil to make the shape of a donut in each muffin holder. There you go. Your makeshift donut pan is ready to go!
What is the best flour to use in donuts?
All-purpose flour is the way to go. You don’t want to use bread flour in your donuts or they’ll get too dense. Cake flour is another alternative if you don’t have all-purpose flour. The cake flour will give the donuts a more airy and light texture
