These Pina Colada donuts are easy to make, and crazy delicious! It’s funny how something SO simple can also be SO kick-you-in-your-pants amazing. These are proof that sort of treat does exist. Life win? I think so.
The base of these Pina Colada themed treats is a baked donut bursting with pineapple/coconut flavor. The baked donut batter is made with coconut oil, coconut milk, crushed pineapple, and a touch of pineapple juice. So bright and vibrant! The coconut milk and oil also guarantee a moist, tender donut. Yes!
Then we make things even sweeter with a coconut buttercream. Coconut buttercream is just dreamy! And it’s seriously simple to make. Just beat together some butter, powdered sugar, and coconut milk and poof: you just made your buttercream. Loves it.
Ingredients
- Yields 6 baked donuts with buttercream
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup crushed pineapple in its juice
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, very soft
- 1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- *Coconut, maraschino cherries, and chopped pineapple for garish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Generously spray a donut pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- In a small bowl, whisk together coconut milk, melted coconut oil, pineapple, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold together until all of the ingredients are well combined.
- Place a large ziplock bag into a cup, then pour the batter into the bag. Snip one corner off the bag, then pipe the batter into the molds. Each donut mold should be about two-thirds full.
- Bake doughnuts for 11 to 13 minutes or until the donuts are firm and spring back slightly when touched. Remove from the oven.
- Allow to rest for five minutes before inverting doughnuts onto a wire rack to cool completely. Allow doughnuts to cool completely (!!!) before icing.
- To make the buttercream -
- In a medium bowl or the body of a stand mixer beat the butter until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and salt. Add coconut milk and vanilla extract; beat until smooth.
- Pour butter cream into a piping bag, or you can just spread it on the donuts with a knife.
- Once donuts are cooled, ice each donut, then top with a cherry, some pineapple, and a dash of coconut. DIG IN!
