This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not completely fit in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
-
A short power supply cord is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in, or tripping over, a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is grounded, the extension cord should be a grounding 3- wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Parts & Features
Before First Use
1. Remove all packaging materials.
2. Check that the Donut Maker has no visible damage and that no parts are
missing.
3. Before using the Donut Maker for the first time or after prolonged
storage, wash and dry the appliance and any accompanying accessories.
4. If the appliance is preheated before use, donuts will cook faster. To
preheat, plug the polarized power cord into a wall socket. The indicator Light
will turn on, showing that the Donut Maker is preheating.
5. Once the Indicator Light has turned off, the Donut Maker is fully heated.
Using Your Donut Maker
1. Place the Donut Maker on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface.
TIP: Lay a heat-resistant lining, such as a cooking tray, beneath the appliance to shield the countertop from any potential drips (photo A).
2. Plug the Donut Maker into a wall socket. The Indicator Light will illuminate upon being plugged in, indicating the Donut Maker is on.
3. Allow the Donut Maker to fully preheat. The Indicator Light will turn off when fully heated.
4. Prepare batter using any one of the included recipes, or using a store- bought dough. Using store-bought dough can reduce prep time.
TIP: To get a more accurate pour for donuts, place the mixture into a pastry bag or a plas-tic bag with a small hole cut in the corner (photo B).
5. Squeeze the button on the Cover Lid Handle and lift Cover Lid.
TIP: The Donut Mold Plate has a nonstick coating that releases food easily, but for best performance you can use a butter, oil, or a cooking spray to lightly grease the cooking surface (photo C).
6. Add batter to Donut Mold Plate until about ¾ full (photo D).
7. Use the Cover Lid Handle to lower the lid and press down (photo E).
8. Allow donuts to cook, following suggested times in the Recipe Guide (Page 23-30) or to your desired doneness.
9. Use a toothpick to remove donuts from the mold, as they will be hot on both sides (photo F).
10. Place donuts on a wire rack to cool and decorate (photo G).
TIP: If frosting donuts, do so on a wire rack over wax paper.
Tips & Tricks
- Be sure not to overfill the Donut Mold Plate, as this may cause batter to spill into neighboring molds or onto the heating plate once the batter expands while cooking. We recommend adding batter until each mold is ¾ full.
- Cooking spray, oil, and butter are not necessary to prevent sticking in the molds, but using them may help the donuts release more easily.
- Plugging in the Donut Maker to preheat for a few minutes before adding batter will speed up the preparation process by eliminating the waiting time.
- Be sure to follow the cleaning guidelines, outlined in “Cleaning & Maintenance,” to avoid scratch-ing or damaging the nonstick coating.
- When filling back cavities with batter, ensure the Cover Lid is fully open and exercise caution to avoid burning fingertips.
- An amount of time as small as 30 seconds can make a big difference in whether donuts are cooked to satisfaction or overcooked, so be sure to keep a timer handy. We recommend baking for 1 ½ minutes on one side, then flipping and baking for another 4 minutes on the other side.
- Use a toothpick to flip the donuts to avoid putting fingertips at risk near the hot Donut Mold Plate.
- To add batter to molds, scoop batter into 1-gallon freezer size plastic bag and seal partway. Snip off ⅟8 ” from corner of the bag and, with the open corner facing the Donut Maker, squeeze bag until each mold is ¾ full. Fold the bag between rounds of baking to avoid leakage or dripping.
- The hottest part of the Donut Mold Plate is directly in the center, so fill the center mold with batter last to reduce the risk of overcooking it.
- Get creative when frosting! Use a spoon to drizzle glaze or toppings for detailed frosting projects.
- Try making the donuts ahead of time! They’ll stay fresh in a sealed bag for up to two days.
Cleaning & Maintenance
- Remove the plug from the wall socket and let the Donut Maker cool down completely.
- Make sure the appliance has cooled down completely before cleaning the nonstick Donut Mold Plates.
- Thoroughly clean the appliance after every use.
- Do not clean the Donut Mold Plates with metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materi-als, as they may damage the nonstick coating.
- Wipe the outside of the Donut Maker with a moist, soft cloth.
- Alternatively, the Donut Mold Plates can be cleaned with hot water, dish soap, and a non-abrasive sponge.
- Clean the Donut Mold Plates with a soft cleaning brush to remove any batter residue.
- Make sure that the appliance is unplugged and all parts are clean and dry before storing.
Troubleshooting
PROBLEM | POSSIBLE CAUSE | SOLUTION |
---|---|---|
The Donut Maker does not turn on. | The appliance is not plugged in. | Plug the |
Donut Maker a grounded wall socket.
The batter is not done after the recommended time.| The batter is clumpy or
too dense.| Allow an additional few minutes of cooking.
The plastic bag method of putting batter onto the Donut Mold Plate is not
working.| You are using the incorrect size bag.| Ensure that you are using a
1-gallon freezer-size bag.
Batter is cooked unevenly in the Donut Maker.| Various batters need different
amounts of exposure to heat.
Batter is being cooked improperly.
| Make sure nothing is stuck to the Donut Mold Plates that may be blocking the heat from reaching the batter.
To properly cook the batter in the recipe guide, bake on one side for 1 ½ minutes. Then, using a toothpick, flip donuts and bake for another 4 minutes.
The Donut Maker won’t close.| Something may be stuck between the handle and
the dough mold plates.| Remove item that is stuck between handle and grill
plate and clean any impacted surface.
The Donut Maker’s nonstick coating does not work.| The nonstick coating may be
blocked by dried grease or crust from a previous donut.| Wipe the nonstick
dough molds with a soft, moist towel or another non-abrasive cleaning utensil.
