Description
A delicious, healthier gluten free baked donut you can make at home in less than 30 minutes! These super fun cake mix donuts are incredibly tasty and super easy to make.
Ingredients
(links below are the gluten free & celiac safe products I used in this recipe)
Donuts
- ⅓ cup melted refined coconut oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 (15.87 ounce) box gluten free vanilla confetti cake mix
Glaze
- 1 tablespoon melted refined coconut oil
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ½ packet ColorKitchen natural food dye
- ColorKitchen rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a donut pan with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, egg, and almond milk until well combined. Add the cake mix and stir just until combined.
step 3
Pour batter into a piping bag or large ziplock bag. Pipe the batter into the donut pan so each cavity is filled ¾ of the way full. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until donuts bounce back when touched. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.
step 4
Once the donuts have cooled, in a small bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, powdered sugar, almond milk, and vanilla extract. If the glaze is too thick add more almond milk until you get a nice pourable consistency, but not too runny. Stir in food coloring until well blended.
step 5
Dip the top of each donut into the glaze and set back on a cooling rack. Add sprinkles while the glaze is still wet.
