Ingredients
(links below are the gluten free & celiac safe products I used in this recipe)
Donuts
- 1/3 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 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 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 3/4 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.
