Ingredients
For Donut Holes
- 1 cup flour
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk

Instructions
Vanilla Donut Holes
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a mini muffin pan and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine dry ingredients. Mix together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder.
- Add the egg, vanilla extract, and milk and stir to incorporate. The batter should be thick, similar to pancake batter.
- Divide the batter evenly among the 24 mini muffin cavities.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.
- Remove the donut holes from the pan and transfer to a cooling rack.
Cinnamon Sugar Coating
- In a small bowl, whisk the cinnamon and sugar together.
- Brush the donut holes with the melted butter. Toss each one of the donut holes in the cinnamon sugar to coat.
Filling
- Fill a piping bag with Nutella and carefully pipe a small amount of Nutella into each donut hole.
Notes
These donut holes are easier to coat with cinnamon sugar and fill when they are warm. Don't allow them to cool too much; do the coating steps quickly.
