Vanilla Donuts with Mango Habanero Glaze

Do you celebrate National Donut Day (first Friday in June)? Here at Burns and McCoy we believe everyday is donut day! Something about life's too short ... yadda yadda. So we recently whipped up a batch for #YearofYum. How sexy are those donuts? Let's pause a moment to take them in in all their glory.

...

Since these are baked, they have more of a cake texture rather than a raised texture. If you are a raised donut die hard, you might want to stay away. But for the rest of you, these are del.i.cious!

We decorated them with hibiscus and toasted coconut. After throughout taste testing, however, we would recommend the toasted coconut. See the recipe below for details.
