Cinnamon Sugar Donuts

Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Blend
• 1/3 cup Light Brown Sugar (packed)
• 1 teaspoon Gluten-Free Baking Powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
• 1 Large Egg
• 1 teaspoon Gluten-Free Vanilla Extract
• 1/4 cup Avocado Oil (+ 2 tablespoons (or other neutral oil))
• 1/4 cup Dairy-Free Milk (+ 2 tablespoons (or regular milk))
• 1 teaspoon White Vinegar
• 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon (for coating)
• 2 tablespoons Dairy-Free Butter (melted, optional for extra coating)

Instructions

1. 1

   Get started by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). Generously grease a six-cavity donut pan with cooking spray or oil. Set aside.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly distributed.

3. 3

   In the same bowl, add the egg, vanilla extract, avocado oil, dairy-free milk, and white vinegar. Stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

4. 4

   Carefully spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full. Be sure to leave some space for the donut hole to form.

5. 5

   Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown and spring back lightly when touched.

6. 6

   Remove the donut pan from the oven and let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

7. 7

   While the donuts are cooling, prepare the cinnamon sugar coating by combining the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Optionally, melt dairy-free butter in another shallow bowl.

8. 8

   For the ultimate Cinnamon Sugar Donuts, brush each donut with melted dairy-free butter and then dip them into the cinnamon sugar mixture, coating both the top and bottom generously.

9. 9

   Place the coated donuts back on the wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container.
