DONUTS
1 cup flour
1/2 cup coconut sugar/refined sugar
1.5 tsp baking powder
pinch salt
pinch cinnamon
1/2 cup plant based milk
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp vanilla
4 T butter/apple sauce/coconut oil/1 flax egg
1/4 raspberries or wild blueberries
DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350 F
°
2. Set aside your milk with apple cider vinegar
3. Mix all your ingredients together in one bowl, adding your milk that you set aside.. Note, if using apple sauce the donuts will have an apple taste. It tastes really nice. If using coconut oil, it’ll have a coconut taste. The best version was with flax meal. They were firm, light and couldn’t taste a flavour.
4. Fill a donut pan half way to 3/4 of the way. Bake for 12 mins. Let it cool completely.
Glaze:
2 cups of icing sugar
5-6 tbsp of milk
Optional: 1 -2 tsp of lemon juice.
Method:
1. Warm up your milk for 20 seconds in the microwave.
2. Add your tsp of butterfly pea powder until it’s evenly mixed.
3. Slowly add this to your icing sugar. Check for consistency - if it’s too think, add more milk. If it’s too thin, add more icing sugar.
4. Optional, if you want to have purple icing add lemon juice BEFORE you add your blue butterfly pea milk you made to the icing sugar. Alternatively, you can just make more donuts and purple glaze to your next set of donuts.
5. Garnish and enjoy your magical donuts!
