Chocolate Glazed Donuts

Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Blend
• 6 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
• 1/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Gluten-Free Baking Powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
• 1/2 cup Milk (Dairy or Non-Dairy)
• 1 each Large Egg
• 1/2 teaspoon Gluten-Free Vanilla Extract
• 1 tablespoon Melted Butter (or Coconut Oil)
• 2 tablespoons Milk (Dairy or Non-Dairy)
• 3 tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
• 1 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
• 1/4 cup Heavy Cream (or Coconut Cream)
• 1 teaspoon Gluten-Free Vanilla Extract

Instructions

1. 1

   Get started by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray, then lightly dust with gluten-free flour. This prevents sticking!

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, sugar, cocoa powder, gluten-free baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.

3. 3

   Add the milk, egg, gluten-free vanilla extract, and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Whisk until you have a smooth batter.

4. 4

   Carefully fill each donut cavity in the prepared pan about halfway full. Avoid overfilling to prevent overflowing during baking.

5. 5

   Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep a close eye on them; ovens can vary!

6. 6

   While the donuts are baking, prepare the chocolate glaze. In a separate bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, heavy cream, and gluten-free vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.

7. 7

   If the glaze is too thin, gradually add more powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency.

8. 8

   Once the donuts are slightly cooled, gently remove them from the pan. Dip the top of each donut into the rich chocolate glaze, allowing any excess to drip off.

9. 9

   Place the glazed donuts on a wire rack to allow the glaze to set completely. Enjoy these delightful gluten-free chocolate donuts while still warm or at room temperature.
