BAKED DONUT HOLES 3-WAYS

As far as I know, there are only a handful of bakeries that specialize in vegan donuts—and many don’t ship ’em. If you’re lucky enough to live in a part of the world that has these magical bakeries, by all means seek them out. For everyone else, here’s an easy way to make your own.

11/2 cups flour

1/3 cup oil

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup nondairy milk

1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds

11/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl until smooth.

3. Lightly grease a mini-muffin tin. Fill each halfway with batter.

4. Bake 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cinnamon Sugar Donuts

Roll each donut in a mixture of 1/2 cup sugar mixed with 1 teaspoon cinnamon while still warm.

Powdered Donuts

Roll each donut in 1 cup powdered sugar while still hot, allow to cool, and roll again.

Chocolate Glaze Donuts

Remove donuts from pan and allow to cool. In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 (12-ounce) package vegan chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon coconut oil in increments of 15 seconds, stirring after each until melted. Using two forks, dip each donut, turning to coat evenly and allowing extra chocolate to drip off. Place on a sheet of parchment paper and refrigerate until chocolate is firm. Alternatively, while chocolate is still wet, sprinkle each donut with chopped nuts, coconut, or sprinkles.
