Skip the donut shop trip with your kiddos this weekend and try these super simple donut muffins. My mom always made these for me when I was little and I never forgot about them, they were my favorite! Now I make them for my kids and they love them. All of the ingredients are what you probably already have in your pantry-no need to run to the grocery store this time. Here’s the details below:
