A delicious strawberry donut dipped in a tart lime glaze and topped off with lime zest these Strawberry Lime Donuts are a quick and easy breakfast treat!
If you haven’t come to conclusion already I’m a huuuuuuge fan of donuts. Not just eating them, I literally have more fun creating different flavors than I do the actual consumption of the things. The possibilities are endless. Yummo is the one word that I can say about donuts. Especially these Strawberry Lime Donuts! Um, yes PLEASE.
So you hear strawberry and lime and you’re like whhhaaattt? For real these flavors are amazing together. Just think strawberry margaritas, or strawberry limeade. Now strawberry lime donuts. These flavors were meant for each other. Like one enhances the other. Two peas in a pod. Harry and Sally. Chocolate and peanut butter. You get the picture right?
I was so surprised when I heard how many people didn’t actually own a donut pan!! I would be lost without mine. I need to get a bigger pan too. I also own a mini donut maker. Yeah can you say obsessed. Now that I’ve piqued your interest you can find donut pans at Target or my husband got mine off Amazon for a sweet suprise…doesn’t happen often but when it does, swoon. Anyways, 3 words to send you off…Go. Make. Now!
