Ingredients
Donuts
- 6 tbl butter, softened
- 1/2 c sugar
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 2 1/4 tsps baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Directions
- Tools Needed: A Donut Baker
- Preheat cake donut maker (or use a cake pan for the oven).
- Combine butter and sugar in a large bowl and mix well with a wooden spoon. Add in flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon; stir to combine. Then add milk and mashed sweet potatoes to the mixture and mix well with wooden spoon.
- For the glaze: Combine powdered sugar and syrup in a small bowl. Mix well. Add milk by the teaspoon full until the glaze is just barely thin enough to dip your donuts (probably 2-3 tsps at the most)
