  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 9-12 donuts 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup pure cane sugar (I used Florida Crystals)
  • ½ cup non-dairy milk (I used oat milk)
  • 2 tbsp unsweetened apple sauce
  • 1 tbsp vegan butter (I used plant crock)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp salt

Ingredients for the Topping

  • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 2.5 tbsp vegan butter
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp food coloring, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
  3. Add the milk, melted butter, apple sauce, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Spray donut mold with non-stick spray.
  5. Divide the batter into the donut mold, filling each about ¾ full.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. While the donuts are baking, prepare the icing with the ingredients from the ingredients topping list.
  8. Melt the butter in the microwave until completely melted.
  9. In a small to medium-sized bowl, mix the confectioners’ sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and food coloring. Whisk until well combined. You can add a little bit of water or milk, if you feel like your icing is not liquid enough.
  10. Once the donuts are finished baking, let them cool for about 15 minutes.
  11. Dip each donut in the icing and let the excess drip off.
