Chocolate Dipped Vanilla Baked Donuts

Baking in a toaster oven had never crossed my mind – I must have been living under a rock until Hamilton Beach kindly sent me their latest toaster oven and said to get creative! After some research and asking friends their experience, I decided to test out this little oven’s capabilities by baking a batch of these Chocolate-Dipped Vanilla Baked Donuts, and boy did this toaster oven exceeded my expectations!

  • Easy access to countertop.
  • Easy to keep clean—food can’t spill on door.
  • Fits 4 slices or a 9” pizza.
