Sour Cream Cake Donuts

June 7, 2013

If you can believe it, silly holidays like National Donut Day actually exist. But we’re not ones to mock. Any excuse, is a good excuse, to eat hot donuts. Or even sillier – to make them.

Naturally, today is one such day.

In case you want to participate… Krispy Kreme, Dunkin, and more are giving them away for free today!

    These days I often use Fage Greek 0% yogurt in place of sour cream to cut some calories. Think the greek yogurt will work in your recipe since it is what I currently have on hand? Can’t wait to try these, they look delicious!

      Oh absolutely! I often sub plain yogurt for sour cream! Can’t wait for you try it!

    Ooh I actually like the sound of sour cream donuts, and I’m not a donut fan usually at all. Looks amazing Missy!

    Wowee! OBSESSED! I wanted to do the doughnut thing but already had my treat at dinner before I found out! When I get back from my travels this is being made ASAP in late celebration! Love + Shine CourtStar

    Great idea. Where is your donut cutter from?

    • missy June 10, 2013 at 8:49 pm

      An antique store. However, Williams Sonoma also sells one!

    !!!!!!!!! Best donut ever !!!!!!! Using buttermilk instead of regular milk just makes them ever more irresistible. Thanks for sharing – you always have great recipes. Keep ’em coming.
