Raspberry Thumbprint Donuts
Apparently “thumbprint” is a hard word for me to type. I’ve typed it wrong about 37 times while writing this post up. The b & p get me.
Anyway.
As I’ve mentioned before, Julia loves helping me in the kitchen. My dad built her a helper stool so she can stand right up to the counter with me (see us in action) and she’s constantly asking to help.
Even if I’m just slicing an apple, she wants in on the action. She was a whiz at making pesto for the cavatappi we made a couple weeks ago but I like to think of easy recipes she can help with (without causing me too much stress).

These Raspberry Thumbprint Donuts fit the bill. She was great at using her thumb and a tablespoon to make the well for the jam. They’re only two main ingredients, plus the glaze, so they’re perfect for little hands that want to help.

TOOLS FOUND ON AMAZON TO HELP YOU:
- Silicone baking mats
- Pastry brush
- My favorite measuring spoons
They’re also perfect if you’re in a time crunch but want to make something impressive, you just need to allow time for the dough to thaw and rise.
Use whichever type of jam is your favorite. You could make a combo plate and let people pick. That would be pretty.

Hi,
I love the sound and looks of these, is there a way to make it using cream cheese with the raspberries?
Regards,
Judy
