Homemade Vegan Donuts
Prep Time 1 hour
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 30 minutes
Ingredients
For the doughnuts:
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
- ½ tsp salt
- ¾ cup plant-based milk almond, soy, or oat
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup sugar coconut or cane
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the glaze:
- ½ cup Biscoff spread
- 2 tbsp plant-based milk
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- Optional: crushed Biscoff biscuits for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the Dough
-
In a small bowl, mix the plant-based milk with apple cider vinegar and let it sit for 5 minutes to curdle (this creates vegan buttermilk).
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
-
Add the sugar, oil, vanilla extract, and vegan buttermilk to the dry mixture. Mix until you form a smooth dough.
Shape and Cook
-
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about ½ inch thickness. Use a doughnut cutter or two circular cutters (one large, one small) to shape the doughnuts.
-
Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Carefully fry the doughnuts in small batches for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Make the Glaze
-
In a small saucepan, gently warm the Biscoff spread until it becomes runny.
-
Remove from heat and whisk in the plant-based milk and powdered sugar until smooth.
Glaze and Garnish
-
Dip each cooled doughnut into the Biscoff glaze, allowing the excess to drip off.
-
For added crunch and visual appeal, sprinkle crushed Biscoff biscuits on top.
