My kids get so excited when their mama makes baked donuts in the morning! Usually for special occasions, but sometimes because I love them so much. For my daughters 9th birthday, I baked up a batch of these raspberry vanilla donuts. They're pink! Her favorite. The addition of pure almond extract is perfect paired with the fresh raspberry glaze. I think these gluten free, vegan almond-vanilla baked donuts make any morning just a bit brighter and even more delicious!

Serves: 12 donuts
Ingredients
Baked Vanilla Donuts
- 1½ cups Sarah's gluten free flour blend
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup, plus 2 tablespoons So Delicious Almond Milk or Coconut Milk Beverage
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup cane sugar
- 3 tablespoons sunflower seed or canola oil
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon pure almond extract
Fresh Raspberry Glaze
- ½ cup fresh or frozen (thawed) raspberries
- 1½ cups powdered sugar
- ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon pure almond extract
Instructions
- To make the baked vanilla donuts, preheat oven to 375ºF and spray two 6-well donut pans with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- In a mixing bowl, mix together coconut milk beverage or almond milk and vinegar, stirring until curdled. Add sugar, oil, vanilla and almond extract. Stir in flour mixture until just combined.
- Spoon batter into a plastic zippered bag (or piping bag) and cut tip. Pipe the batter into prepared donut pans.
- Bake donuts for 16-18 minutes, until golden brown and baked through. Turn out onto cooling rack.
- To make the raspberry glaze, place raspberries in fine mesh sieve. Press raspberries through sieve, catching all of the juices. Discard the seeds.
- Add powdered sugar to pressed raspberry puree. Whisk until smooth. Add vanilla and almond extract, stirring until combined.
- When donuts are mostly cool, dip tops into glaze to coat and let set for 10-15 minutes. Donuts are best served right away or same day. If not serving donuts right away, wait to glaze until ready to enjoy.
