Recipe: Gluten-Free Mini Donuts And Glaze

Homemade gluten-free donuts are always fun to make because they can sit out for a few days and still be good (it seems like all gluten-free products need to refrigerate!). Here is a recipe for both gluten-free donuts and a gluten-free glaze to go on top.   Enjoy!

Gluten-Free Donuts & Glaze Recipe

Dry Ingredients:

• 1 cup gluten-free Pantry Muffin Mix (or any gluten-free flour mix)
• 1/3 cup Sugar
• 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
• Dash of Salt

Wet Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup Rice Milk
• 1/2 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
• 1/2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
• 1/4 Cup Unsweetened Applesauce
• 4 tbsp Oil

Glaze Ingredients:

• 1 Cup Powdered Sugar
• 2 tbs Rice Milk
• 1/4 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract

Donut Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large bowl, combine dry ingredients and mix thoroughly.
3. In a separate bowl, blend the wet ingredients together.
4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry and stir until just combined. It should form a very soft, moist dough.
5. To have smooth donuts, use a pastry bag or a ziplock bag with the end snipped off to squeeze the dough into an ungreased mini-donut pan. Fill the sections until just below the edge of the pan. Smooth the filled sections with a knife or spatula.
6. Bake for approximately 10-11 minutes. The bottom (visible part) will not be brown, but you will see brown edges around the top.
7. Remove from oven and let the pan cool for 5 minutes on a baking rack before attempting to remove the donuts. If the donuts do not flip out of the pan, gently loosen the edges with a butter knife.
