Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together plain flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter.
  4. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until combined.
  5. Fill each cavity of your donut pan about two-thirds full with the batter.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the tops are golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  8. While cooling, melt unsalted butter and combine sugar with cinnamon for the topping.
  9. Brush each warm donut bite with melted butter and roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  10. Melt chocolate with heavy cream in short bursts, stirring in between to prevent seizing.
  11. Dip the top of each donut bite into the chocolate ganache before serving.
