These Baked Mango Cardamom Donut + a fresh cup of piping hot coffee is my perfect start to any day … especially on Mondays! Last year I finally bought a donut baking tray as my love for donuts is kinda insane but I couldn’t muster the courage to make one at home cause:
The time it takes to proof the dough (I just can’t wait that long) the amount of oil you need to fry those pillowy soft balls of sweet heaven (ahhhhhhhh)
Seriously, I can eat them at the bakery, although I know they are fried but still atleast I’m not doing the frying part myself and feeling guilty all the time. So Finally, Yes Finally after 1year of that donut tray looking at me everytime I opened the pantry, I finally decided to make these Baked Mango Cardamom Donut. They are literally the softest donuts you’d bite into and they vanish in like 10 seconds 😉 Since they are baked, I gobbled 3-4 of them instantly and burned my tongue too as I just couldn’t wait (remember insane donut love mentioned above).

Now, let’s talk a little about the delicious ‘Mango-Cardamom’ flavoring as it’s not your usual donut flavor. I’d definitely call it my Indian Summer inspired donut recipe and one that you ABSOLUTELY Need to TRY! The sweet mango pulp (fresh or store-bought) along with freshly ground cardamoms adds such a different tropical-summer feel to the donuts.
Also, if you’re a donut fan like me, you should definitely give these a try soon as they are not only easier to make at home but since they are mini, you can have more than 2 or 3 or even 4 😉 Enjoy them and add these Baked Mango Cardamom Donut to your Dessert or Breakfast menu and surprise your loved ones with this Summer inspired version.
