Instructions
- Heat the oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Stir the oats, melted butter, honey, vanilla, and salt until evenly coated, then spread on the sheet.
- Bake, stirring once, until golden and crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool completely; it crisps as it cools.
- Press onto freshly glazed doughnuts.
Tips
- Vanilla swap: use vanilla bean paste 1:1 in place of the extract for visible specks, or the seeds of 1 vanilla bean for each tablespoon of extract.
- Best vanilla for this: Madagascar (rich, creamy, classic), or Mexican (spiced, warm, woodsy). Any pure vanilla works.
- Storage: Store airtight for up to 5 days.
