PARTNER POST: We’ve teamed up with Bonne Maman to bring you the best homemade breakfast and brunch recipes to show Mom you care this Mother’s Day and all spring long.
Breakfast in bed requires a batch of sweet Raspberry White Chocolate Doughnuts. These baked sweets are topped with a white chocolate glaze and a sprinkle of chopped pistachios and freeze-dried raspberries.
Moms deserve the best, do they not?
I remember many a Mother’s Day in which my siblings and I fixed ours breakfast in bed. I can’t remember what we prepared, just the fact that we did it. 
Muffins, perhaps? Pancakes? French toast?
Whatever it was, I’m 90% sure it came from a box. While I no longer think a box mix is the best breakfast I could make for my mom, I do know that we certainly tried our best back then.
These are cake donuts flavored with Bonne Maman’s Raspberry Preserves, then baked in a donut pan in the oven. These preserves — which have long been a family favorite — give the donuts a sweet, berry flavor and a soft pink color.
I topped the donuts with a white chocolate glaze, then sprinkled them with chopped pistachios and freeze-dried raspberries for extra color. I love the way these pink donuts look with their white icing and colorful accents on top!
They’re a sweet and colorful way to show Mom you care with breakfast in bed, and a cup of coffee to boot!

Description
Sweet raspberry preserves swirl through these fluffy baked doughnuts. A white chocolate glaze and crunchy pistachios add the perfect finishing touch.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups (591 ml) all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 cup (118 ml) sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup (59 ml) unsalted butter (cold and cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup (237 ml) plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup (118 ml) Bonne Maman raspberry preserves
- 1/4 cup (59 ml) heavy cream
- 4 ounces (113 g) white chocolate
- 2 cups (473 ml) powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup (30 g) pistachios (coarsely chopped)
- 1/4 cup (14 g) freeze-dried raspberries (crumbled)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
- Coat two standard-size doughnut pans (12 wells total) with non-stick cooking spray.
- Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl.
- Cut the butter into the flour mixture until crumbly using a pastry blender or electric mixer.
- Whisk the eggs, yogurt, vanilla, and preserves together in a medium mixing bowl.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Transfer batter to donut pans.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted shows just a few crumbs when removed.
- Cool for 5 minutes before unmolding the donuts onto a wire rack.
MAKE THE GLAZE
- Melt white chocolate with heavy cream in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat until smooth.
- Stir in powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time until smooth; the mixture will thicken.
- Spoon glaze over the top of the donuts.
- Garnish each donut with a sprinkle of pistachios and freeze-dried raspberries.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat Greek yogurt.
- If you don’t have Bonne Maman preserves, any seedless raspberry jam will work.
- Store leftover doughnuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of donut pan should I use for the Raspberry White Chocolate Doughnuts?
A standard 6-cavity donut pan works well for this recipe, as it will give you the classic donut shape.
Can I use a different type of preserves instead of Bonne Maman Raspberry Preserves?
While Bonne Maman Raspberry Preserves are recommended for their flavor and texture, you can substitute with another berry preserve, but it may alter the taste and color of the donuts.
How do I achieve a smooth white chocolate glaze for the donuts?
To make a smooth glaze, melt the white chocolate gently in a microwave or double boiler, stirring until fully melted and smooth, then dip the cooled donuts in the glaze.
Ohh these look so yummy, now I’m hungry!!
