Why These Ingredients
Common Mistakes, Notes, Prep in Advance, Storage, Swaps & Tips
Notes:
- Coat the donuts while still warm so the vegan butter sticks and the cinnamon sugar adheres properly.
- Don’t overmix the batter — a few lumps are fine.
Storage:
- Best eaten fresh. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
Swaps:
- Try a cardamom sugar coating instead of cinnamon for a more exotic flavor.
- Swap avocado oil for melted coconut oil or vegetable oil.
Tips:
- Use a piping bag or zip-lock bag with the corner snipped to fill the donut cavities neatly and quickly.
