Donut Loaf Recipes

A donut loaf is a baked loaf cake inspired by an old-fashioned cake donut, with a soft crumb, buttery streusel, and a glaze that sets into a thin, crackly shell.

Start with the original, or pick a flavor below - chocolate chip cookie, pumpkin spice, blueberry, and more. Each recipe includes its own ingredient amounts, photos, and baking instructions.

Why this series exists

Why it tastes like a donut

The streusel through the middle blends into the batter as it bakes. The crunchy topping and set glaze give each slice that old-fashioned donut finish. It is the combination that makes a slice feel like a donut to me.

Choose your flavor, then follow that recipe for its pan size, baking time, and glazing instructions. Those details vary from loaf to loaf.
