Ingredients

DONUTS:

  • 1 ½ cups organic all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup organic cane sugar
  • 2 tsps baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, optional
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 large organic eggs, at room temp.
  • 1 cup Almond milk
  • 2 tsps vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil

GARNISH:

  • 1-2 cups organic powdered sugar

Instructions

TO MAKE THE DONUTS:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a mini donut baking pan that has 6-wells. NOTE: You can also make 6 standard size donuts instead, if preferred.
  • In a bowl, add the flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and sea salt, whisking everything together. Finally, add the eggs, milk, vanilla, and oil, mixing together with a wooden spoon until fully combined and batter is thick and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Spoon the batter into a piping bag and pipe batter it into prepared donut pan wells, filling them about ¾ of the way.

BAKE THE DONUTS:

  • Bake for 11-13 minutes or until toothpick inserted into donuts comes out clean.
  • While the donuts bake, add the powdered sugar in a ziplock bag.

COAT THE DONUTS:

  • Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before releasing the donuts from their pan and immediately toss them in powdered sugar while warm.
  • Then place donuts onto a cooling rack to cool completely before tossing them in the powdered sugar again for a second coating.
  • Repeat until all donuts are coated.
  • Bon Appetit!
