Our third child is due any day now, but that doesn’t stop me from getting in the kitchen to prepare a little Valentine’s Day breakfast for my boys! They literally take me 15 minutes to make. Five minutes of prep time and 10 minutes of baking and you’ve got yourself six fabulous donuts!

For even faster breakfast prep, top them with melted chocolate or store-bought frosting.

And don’t forget to add a touch of sprinkles!

I hope you all have a fabulous Valentine’s Day!
