1/4cupmilk (whole, reduced fat, skim, or almond should work fine here)
For the glaze:
1 1/4cupsconfectioners' sugar
1-2tablespoonsgrapefruit juice
Instructions
For the donuts:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Generously grease a doughnut pan; set aside.
In a small bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and poppy seeds; set aside.
In a large bowl combine the granulated sugar and grapefruit zest; mix together with your fingers until zest is evenly distributed in the sugar. Add in the melted butter and beat until combined. Add in the egg and vanilla; beat well. Stir in milk.
Add in the dry ingredients and gently fold the mixture together using a rubber spatula, stirring only until mixture is evenly combined.
Spoon the thick batter into the molds of your prepared pan, filling each mold up 2/3 of the way. Bake for 10-11 minutes, or until firm and lightly golden on the tops.
Remove pan from oven and allow doughnuts to cool for at least 10 minutes in the tray before transferring to a cooling wrack to cool completely.
Once cool, dip each doughnut in glaze and serve! The glaze does take a few minutes to set, so you may want to wait about 5 minutes after glazing to dig in... but it's hard!
For the Glaze:
In a wide, shallow dish combine juice and sugar, and whisk to combine. Carefully dip cooled doughnuts in the glaze, and let rest for 5 minutes - if you can wait - before serving.
