Cover with butter and then let the flour adhere to a ring cake pan with a hinge. Gently pour in the cake pan all the dough and then bake at 180°C(356°F) for 30 minutes. Once the time has passed, do the toothpick test. If the dough doesn’t stick to the toothpick it means the cake is cooked. If it sticks, put the donut back in the oven for a few more minutes. Once the donut is cooked, let it cool and then sift some powdered vanilla sugar over it.
