How to Make Easy Bisquick Gingerbread Donut Holes
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and generously spray a 24-well mini muffin pan with nonstick spray.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of Bisquick baking mix, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of ground ginger, and ¼ teaspoon of ground cloves until thoroughly combined.
  3. Pour in ½ cup of unsulphured molasses, crack in 1 egg, add ¼ cup of vegetable oil, ¼ cup of unsweetened applesauce, and ½ cup of milk. Mix everything until well combined and smooth.
  4. Using a cookie scoop, carefully fill each well in the mini muffin pan about ¾ full with the batter.
  5. Slide the muffin pan into your preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes, checking for doneness.
  6. Once baked, let them cool for just a few minutes, then roll each donut hole in melted butter before tossing in a bowl filled with a mixture of ½ cup sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.
  7. Enjoy these treats warm, or allow them to cool to room temperature.
