Candied Almond Glazed Donuts -- baked, not fried

Baked donuts are the best! This is the latest recipe . . .
(Half a recipe makes just six, depending on how much you put in each doughnut depression or make the full batch for a larger number.)
Note: To get a head start on the donuts—mix sour cream, eggs, vanilla, oil and sugar and store in refrigerator; mix all dry ingredients together and cover. When ready to bake, add the dry ingredient to the wet and proceed with step #5.
