Instructions:
- Preheat and Prep – Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly grease a mini donut pan.
- Mix Dry Ingredients – In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 tsp baking powder, ¼ tsp baking soda, and ¼ tsp salt.
- Mix Wet Ingredients – In another bowl, mix ½ cup non-dairy milk, 2 tbsp avocado oil, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar.
- Make the Batter – Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Fill and Bake – Spoon batter into the donut pan cavities, filling ¾ full. Bake for 10–12 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Coat – Mix ¼ cup granulated sugar and 1 tbsp ground cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Brush warm donuts with 2 tbsp melted vegan butter, then dip into cinnamon sugar to coat.
- Serve – Enjoy warm and fresh.
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.
