Baked Orange Doughnuts

For the doughnuts:

Preheat the oven to 425 F, and grease a large doughnut pan with cooking spray. (You can also use a small doughnut pan, which will yield 2 dozen mini doughnuts.)

Prepare a piping bag with a large round tip, and set aside. (You can also just spoon the doughnut batter into the doughnut pan, but piping it in is easier.)

In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.

Add in the milk, vanilla, eggs, melted butter, orange juice, and orange zest. Stir until well-combined.

Scoop the batter into the prepared piping bag, and pipe the batter into the doughnut pan. Or you can spoon the batter into each doughnut mold.

Bake at 425 F for 8-9 minutes, or until the top of the doughnut springs back when you touch it with your finger.

Let doughnuts cool slightly in the pan, then glaze the doughnuts immediately.

For the glaze:

In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, orange zest and milk until combined. Use immediately.
