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.
