Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. In a medium bowl, stir together oil, buttermilk, vanilla, and eggs, then add to dry ingredients. Stir just until combined, add vinegar, and mix thoroughly. Fold in 1/2 cup strawberries. Lightly grease a doughnut pan (if your pan has 6 holes, work in 2 batches). Fill molds three-quarters full and bake until golden brown, about 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, make glaze: Whisk together remaining 1/4 cup strawberries, powdered sugar, and 1 tablespoon water, adding more water if necessary. Place doughnuts on a cooling rack set on a sheet tray and spoon glaze on tops. Let dry 5 minutes before serving.
