Ingredients

  • Mini Donuts
  • Fruit Loops
  • Candy Eyes

Instructions

  • Start by sitting donuts in a single layer. Make as many of these turkey donuts as you want. 
  • Next, grab a toothpick and add 4-5 Fruit Loops on the toothpick. 
  • Stick toothpick on the back side on top of the donut. I did 4 toothpicks per donut. 
  • Then press your candy eyes in the front. Use a little pressure to ensure they stay. 
  • Break a Fruit Loop in half and use a piece for beak. Press firmly as well. 
  • Then serve up the mini turkey donuts for breakfast or a snack. 
  • Make as many turkey donuts as you would like. Only do 1 or do 10, the choice is yours.

Notes

Donuts - Any flavor of donuts works. I used a pumpkin spice donut. Feel free to do homemade donuts if you prefer store bought. 
Full size donuts - If you do full size donuts just add more lines of cereal for the feathers to fill out the back of the donut. 
Frosting or Corn Syrup - You can secure the eyes and beak on by a little frosting or dab of corn syrup if you are afraid of them falling off. 
Turkey Feathers - Any type of "0" shaped cereal will work. Have fun and get creative. You can even change up the items for eyes and beak.
Storing Donuts - If you want to make these ahead of time, go right ahead. Then store in an airtight container on the counter. I don't recommend making more than 24 hours in advance. The donuts will dry out pretty fast.
