How to Make Galactic Chocolate Donuts

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a donut pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fill each donut well about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
  8. Invert the pan onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While donuts cool, prepare the glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and melted coconut oil until smooth.
  10. Pour about 1/2 cup of the glaze into a small bowl. Add purple and blue food coloring to this bowl and gently swirl with a toothpick or skewer to create a marble effect.
  11. Dip the top of each donut into the glaze, then gently lift and place on the rack to allow excess glaze to drip off.
  12. Sprinkle the glazed donuts with edible glitter.
  13. Repeat steps 10-12 until all donuts are glazed.
