Ugh, mornings. Am I right? But how awesome would your mornings be with dessert for breakfast?! This IS a thing and THIS IS NOT A DRILL PEOPLE!
Oh. Yes. I’m talking s’more doughnuts!
Best of all: these sweet little doughnuts are baked and made with whole wheat flour (you could easily use only whole wheat flour instead of the 50/50 recipe I use to make them even healthier) so they’re healthier than their fried cousins. Healthy(ish) doughnuts?! What’s the world coming to?!
Better drown that in some chocolate icing and marshmallows before this healthiness gets out of hand…
But, of course, this wouldn’t be dessert for breakfast if we didn’t add some deliciously not-so-healthy goodness, right? I’m not going to lure you in with the promise of dessert for breakfast and then pull out bran muffins (That’s just not cool, guys). Instead, we’re going all Emeril Lagasse on these doughnuts. BAM! Marshmallows! BAM! Chocolate icing! BAM! Graham cracker crumbs EVERYWHERE!
S’more Doughnuts
- Yield: 6 doughnuts
- Category: Breakfast
Ingredients
For the graham cracker doughnuts:
- 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp. (30 grams) butter, melted
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk
For the chocolate glaze:
- 2 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 oz (28 grams) dark chocolate
- 1 tbsp. baking cocoa
For the garnish:
- Mini marshmallows
- Finely crushed graham crackers
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients for the doughnuts (all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking soda and powder, and cinnamon). In a large bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients (butter, egg, milk), and whisk in the dry ingredients until lump free.
- Pour (or pipe) the batter into a greased doughnut pan and bake at 350F/175C for 9-11 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the doughnuts comes out clean. Allow the doughnuts to cool until you can comfortably handle the pan with your bear hands, then turn them out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
- To make the glaze, combine all the glaze ingredients and cook over medium heat until the chocolate melts and the mixture is warm. The glaze is ready when it begins to form a skin and crack when you stir it.
- Dip the cooled doughnuts in the glaze and immediately garnish with mini marshmallows and crushed graham crackers.
Wow this looks so good! I’ve never had any kind of S’mores before and it seems like I’m missing out on something!
Sounds like it’s high time to hop on board the s’more bandwagon then! 🙂 I may be a little biased, but I’m pretty sure s’mores are the best thing ever. 😉
These look yummy!
Thank you! 😀
Here goes my diet! 😀 If you want me to eat these for breakfast doctor Claire, I’ll happily do just that 😉 All week long!
I hope you’ll share your recipe with Idea Box

Thank you Kari! You definitely have to try making your own doughnuts! They’re SUPER tasty and dangerously easy! 🙂
These look lovely!
Thank you Colleen! 🙂
These look SO tasty, Claire! I’ll have to try them! And you’re right…what a great way to start your morning 🙂
Doughnuts are my one consolation to having to get up in the mornings. 😉 So glad you liked them!
Oh dear! I could eat WAY too many of those! Yum!
They are dangerously delicious. 😉
These look delicious! I love s’mores but I love things that resemble s’mores even more!
Have you tried to blow torch the marshmallows on top of the doughnuts? Or would this affect the glaze?
S’more snacks are the best snacks, for sure! I haven’t tried using a blow torch to toast the marshmallows, but given the easy melting nature of the glaze, I’d be hesitant to do so. You really would probably melt the glaze right off the doughnut. However, if you want to skip the oven and go the blow torch route, you could definitely toast the marshmallows that way before putting them on the doughnuts. 🙂
Just getting back from Cape Cod, having S’mores more times than I’d like to admit! These look incredible, wish I saw this before the vacation…
More s’mores than you care to admit? Pretty sure there’s no such thing as too many s’mores. 😉 Sounds like a wonderful trip!
