directions
-
For Doughnuts:
- Strain the pineapple & reserve the juice. Squeeze out as much pineapple juice as possible using a cheesecloth, clean lint-free tea towel or by pressing crushed pineapple thru a fine sieve. There should an excess that can be used for the glaze. NOTE: Do not over-mix. Most of the steps require only enough mixing to combine.
- Preheat oven to 375F - Lightly coat doughnut pan w/oil. Mix together flour, sugar, baking soda plus salt & whisk to fully combine ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, combine oil, buttermilk, rum extract plus eggs & whisk until well-combined.
- Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients & mix only until moistened.
- Add vinegar & mix well. Sprinkle in pineapple & fold in until combined.
- Fill doughnut wells only 3/4 full. Bake for 10-12 min or til golden brown.
- Let cool in pan for 5 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack to fully cool.
- NOTE: This recipe assumes you have a doughnut baking pan. If you don't, then use a baking sheet & get creative. These pastries do not have to be round. They can be twisted (like me), etc.
-
For Glaze:
- Mix the crushed pineapple, sugar & pineapple juice in a bowl until smooth & creamy.
- Spoon onto cooled doughnuts. Sprinkle immediately w/the shredded coconut & wait at least 10 min for glaze to set before serving.

I am an American transplanted from Dallas to Iceland by marriage to a native Icelander & I retired to become his "Kitchen Queen". We love to entertain our family & friends, so I have an eclectic collection of recipes. I especially love simple, easy-fix, flexible & make-ahead recipes - BUT also like challenging myself on occasion. I enjoy baking & food photography. I am devoted to the "More is Always Better Principle" & apply it liberally to bacon, butter & garlic. I can have ingredient issues due to availability here in Iceland & my DH is medically diet-restricted from some ingredients as well. Either situation might require me to modify a recipe, but I will do my best to be true to your recipes & fair/honest in my reviews. Mary Pat (aka twissis)
