Vegan Gluten-Free Beet Donuts
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups gluten free all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp beetroot powder
- 4 tbsp melted vegan butter
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2/3 cup nondairy milk
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
Glaze
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp beetroot powder
- 2-3 tbsp nondairy milk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350˚F.
In a large bowl, mix together both flours, baking powder and soda, salt and beet powder.
In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, applesauce, milk, sugar, vanilla extract and apple cider vinegar.
Using a spatula, stir wet ingredients into dry, stirring just until batter is smooth. Pipe into a greased donut pan.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely.
Whisk together glaze ingredients until smooth. Dip each donut into glaze and let excess drip off. Enjoy.
Tips
Adding beet powder to baked goods is a great way to incorporate more beets into your diet and encourage kids to eat them.
