Breadcrumb Baked Donuts With A Sea Salt And Maple Glaze

  1. Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius. If you are not using a silicone donut pan, grease your donut pan.
  2. Whisk the egg whites together with the muscovado sugar and the pinch of salt until stiff and glossy.
  3. Add the breadcrumbs and melted butter to the bowl containing the beaten egg whites and carefully fold the breadcrumbs and butter into the egg white mixture being careful not to deflate it.
  4. Fill a pastry bag with the batter and carefully pipe into your donut mould. Smooth the top of each mould with the back of a wet spoon (to stop the batter from sticking to the spoon).
  5. Bake in the oven for ca. 15 minutes or until the tops of the donuts are golden-brown in colour and a toothpick inserted into the middle of the donuts comes out clean.
  6. Let donuts cool in the mould for a couple of minutes and then carefully invert them onto a serving plate.
  7. For the glaze, whisk together the icing sugar with the maple syrup, milk and the salt until the sugar is dissolved and there are no more lumps. Drizzle the donuts with the glaze and, if you want to, top each donuts with some crushed walnut chunks and scatter some sea salt flakes on top.Note: by all means these don't have to be baked in a donut pan. While I have a scary number of different sized (and shaped!) baking trays, pie forms etc, buying an extra baking pan for a single recipe is quite silly. While you do need it if you want these to look like real donuts, you could easily bake them in a muffin tray or any other pan with small moulds you have.
