Get the Recipe: Gluten Free Donuts
These gluten free donuts are soft, fluffy and sweet! They are easy to make and great for breakfast, a snack and dessert. These donuts are topped with a simple homemade vanilla glaze!
Ingredients
Gluten Free Donuts
- ¾ cup milk, regular or dairy free
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 cups gluten free 1 to 1 flour
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
Glaze
- 1 ¼ cups powdered sugar
- ¼ cup milk, regular or dairy free
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Generously spray a donut pan with nonstick spray.
- In a mixing bowl, add milk, eggs, vanilla and oil. Stir to combine.
- Then add in gluten free flour, sugar, and baking powder. Stir to combine. The dough will be thin like cake batter.
- Use a spoon to spoon donut batter into greased donut pan. Fill each cavity halfway.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until donuts have risen and set.
- Remove donuts from oven. Allow donuts to cool in pan for 5 minutes. Then carefully invert the donut pan and remove donuts onto a cooling rack.
- To make the glaze, add powdered sugar and milk to a mixing bowl. Stir until creamy.
- Dip each donut into glaze and place back on cooling rack. Repeat for each donut.
Notes
- Both regular milk and dairy free milk work in this recipe. To keep it dairy free, I used vanilla almond milk in both the donuts and glaze.
- The donut batter will be thin like cake batter.
- I use and love Wilton's donut pan. Generously spray with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
- Bake donuts until they have fully risen. A toothpick inserted will come out clean when they are done baking.
- These donuts can be served with or without the glaze.
- They can be served warm immediately after glazing or they can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Nutrition facts include the glaze.
