These easy sour cream baked donuts are soft, tender, and made with just 3 ingredients, including a box of cake mix. No yeast, no frying, and no patience required. Add the simple vanilla glaze for a sweet bakery-style finish. 🍩
0 Preheat the oven to 375℉. Spray a donut pan with no-stick spray and set aside.
1 Mix the cake mix, nutmeg, and sour cream until all of the sour cream is mixed in and it creates a thick dough (see video). The dough will be thick like a quick bread dough.
2 Spoon the dough into the prepared donut pans, filling them about 2/3 - 3/4 of the way up.
3 Bake for about 8 minutes or until an instant read thermometer shows 195℉.
4 Remove from oven and let sit for 5 minutes before turning out of the pan and spooning the glaze over the top.

6 Mix the melted butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar until smooth.
7 Add milk, if needed, until the mixture flows from a spoon.
8 Spoon over the warm donuts.
