The holiday season is an exciting time for kids but can be super overwhelming for parents, with all the festivities and activities we have lined up. I love baking with the kids and sometimes, but making everything from scratch can be super overwhelming. My kitchen becomes a mess and by the end of it, I'm exhausted. Luckily holiday baking can be made simple by using this genius hack. I’m thinking outside of the box by making baked donuts using Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix. The baked donuts come out perfectly light and fluffy, and so delicious. You can also feel good that it’s made with quality ingredients, no artificial colors or flavors. Rolly and I had such a fun time decorating the donuts together and this is a great way to still have those holiday baking sessions, without the stress of feeling like you have to make everything from scratch. #MakeKrusteaz
