When it comes to donuts we love them all. But we especially love cute decorated ones. So this year I decided to whip up some East mini ones for a fun Christmas themed breakfast. To keep it simple I just grabbed some mini store bought ones.

These already had a clear glaze on them so they were sticky to make. So if you go the route of buying store bought I definitely recommend trying to get them without a glaze and plain.

Now these were super fun to make and really much easier than they appear to be. The fun thing about decorated food is it’s going to be eaten soon so don’t stress the details to much. Especially if your making them for your littles. They won’t even notice the parts you might not embrace happy with. They are just going to be super excited.

You should check out my homemade ones I make. The recipe is super simple and they taste so good!

So onto how to decorate your mini donuts to make a fun Christmas themed breakfast… that’s full of lots of sugar.. so enjoy!
