Ingredients
  

Chocolate Gluten Free Donuts

  • 1 1/3 cup 180 grams gfJules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 cup natural cocoa
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 Tablespoons 1 ounce butter or vegan butter
  • 2 Tablespoons vegetable safflower, sunflower or non-GMO canola oil
  • 6 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg or 1 1/2 Tablespoons mashed banana + 2 Tablespoons applesauce
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup Chocolate Milk/Mylk or Dark Chocolate OWYN

Glaze

  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons milk/mylk or vanilla OWYN
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425F.
  • Butter a donut pan containing six donut molds or lightly oil with nonstick spray.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together gfJules Flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat butter, oil and sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add egg or substitute and mix.
  • Slowly stir in dry gluten free flour mixture and milk of choice until smooth; do not over-mix.
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling only to the rim. Smooth batter with a wet spatula.
  • Bake for 9 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Do not over-bake. Remove from the oven and allow the donuts to cool in pan on a wire rack for about 5 minutes before lifting out of the pan.
  • To mix glaze, sift or whisk powdered sugar in a small bowl to remove clumps. Whisk in milk of choice and vanilla. Transfer to a flat bottom bowl.
  • Dip each donut in the glaze and return to the wire rack with parchment or a pan underneath to keep down the mess!
  • Add gluten free sprinkles if desired.

Notes

If you have only Dutch Processed cocoa instead of natural cocoa powder, use an equal amount of Dutched cocoa but replace the 1/2 teaspoon baking soda with 1 teaspoon baking powder.
