There’s nothing quite like a fresh, homemade donut, and with this gluten-free, dairy-free recipe, everyone can enjoy them! These donuts are light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet without any compromise on taste.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum if not already included)
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar or granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)
- 1/2 cup almond milk (or other dairy-free milk)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg (or flax egg for vegan option)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
- In another bowl, mix the almond milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and egg until well combined.
- Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spoon or pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each mold about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let the donuts cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Optionally, dip in a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and almond milk or coat with cinnamon sugar for extra flavor.
Enjoy!
These donuts are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Whether for breakfast, dessert, or a midday treat, these gluten-free, dairy-free delights will satisfy your sweet tooth in the best way!
