TIPS & TRICKS
Be sure not to overfill the Donut Mold Plate as this may cause batter to spill
•
into neighboring molds or onto the heating plate once the batter expands
while cooking. It is recommended to add batter until each mold is ¾ full.
Oil and butter are not necessary to prevent sticking in the molds, but using
•
them may help the donuts release more easily.
Plugging in the Donut Maker to preheat for a few minutes before adding
•
batter will speed up the preparation process by eliminating waiting time.
Be sure to follow the cleaning guidelines outlined in "Cleaning &
•
Maintenance" to avoid scratching or damaging the nonstick coating.
When filling back Molds with batter, ensure the Cover Lid is fully open and
•
exercise caution to avoid burning fingertips.
An amount of time as small as 30 seconds can make a big difference in
•
whether donuts are cooked to satisfaction or overcooked, so be sure to keep
a timer handy. It is recommended to bake for 1½ minutes on one side then
flip and bake for another 4 minutes on the other side.
Use a toothpick to flip the donuts to avoid burning or damaging fingertips on
•
the hot cooking surfaces.
For added precision when adding batter to the Molds, scoop batter into
•
1-gallon freezer size plastic bag and seal partway. Snip off
the bag and, with the open corner facing the Donut Maker, squeeze bag until
each mold is ¾ full. Fold the bag between rounds of baking to avoid leakage
or dripping.

The hottest part of the Donut Mold Plate is directly in the center, so fill the
•
center mold with batter last to reduce the risk of overcooking it.
Get creative when frosting! Use a spoon to drizzle glaze or toppings for
•
detailed frosting projects.
Try making the donuts ahead of time! They'll stay fresh in a sealed bag for up
•
to two days.
