Instructions
Preparing the donuts:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a donut mold.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
- In another bowl, mix the plant-based milk, melted coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract. Stir well.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until you obtain a smooth batter. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the donut mold, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean.
- Allow the donuts to cool in the mold for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Preparing the blueberry glaze:
- In a small saucepan, cook the blueberries over medium-low heat for 5 to 10 minutes until they release their juices.
- Transfer the cooked blueberries to a blender and blend until smooth.
- In a bowl, combine 2-3 tablespoons of the blueberry puree with the powdered sugar and almond milk. Mix until smooth and glossy. Adjust the consistency by adding more almond milk if needed.
Glazing the donuts:
- Once the donuts have cooled, dip them into the blueberry glaze, ensuring an even coating.
- Place them back on the wire rack and let the glaze set for about 30 minutes before serving.
