I made cake donuts using a muffin tin before. You use tinfoil to make the donut ring shape. https://www.biggerbolderbaking.com/make-donut-pan/. I'd like to get an actual donut pan and try them though. They turned out okay...

I've always preferred baked doughnuts. Even before I started making them Just one of those personal preferences.

I like the cake doughnuts baked but the raised doughnuts are better fried. If I want to bake a sweet bread I make cinnamon rolls.

Baked doughnuts are are a result of the vilifying of oil that the sugar industry committed in the 60s and 70s. Dietitians now recognize that we need to eat both saturated and un saturated fat every day to be healthy. We need to stay away from trans fats but you do not get them if you fry at home. You have to re heat oil about 10 times to get trans fats. We do not do that at home usually

Not my reason...I like the taste of the baked better PLUS, I don't like cleaning up after frying!
