Vegan donuts are becoming a popular fad! Whenever I walk into a coffee shop, centered in the display are delicious-looking vegan baked donuts! However, while I see vegan donuts everywhere, I hardly ever see vegan gluten-free donuts!

I’m here to fill that void! Gluten-Free Vegan Baked Donuts have become my “thing”. I mean, have you tried my Baked Strawberry Donuts with Lemon Glaze or Baked Chocolate Donuts with Chocolate Avocado Icing?! Both are gluten-free, vegan, soft, fluffy, and SOOO GOOD!

You’ll Love These Gluten-Free Vegan Blueberry Donuts! They Are:

• Quick and easy to make! Ready to enjoy in less than 30 minutes.
• Light, airy, and bursting with juicy blueberries!
• Simple ingredients and tools! The only things you’ll need are the ingredients, a mixing bowl, and a donut pan. Here is the donut pan that I use: Wilton Non-Stick 6-Cavity Donut Baking Pan.

Ingredients You Will Need:

• Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour: I use Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour. You can use any gluten-free all-purpose blend you like, just make sure it contains xanthan gum. If you are not sensitive to gluten, you can use regular flour, like King Arthus All Purpose Flour.
• Natural Sweeteners: I use pure maple syrup and coconut sugar to sweeten these donuts. If you do not have coconut sugar you can sub brown sugar.  
• Lemon: The lemon adds an extra layer of zest and enhances the flavor of the blueberries. You’ll need the juice of a couple of lemons and some lemon zest. Make sure to rinse your lemon before zesting to remove any dirt.
• Non-Dairy Milk: Use any non-dairy milk you like. I use Unsweetened Almond Milk.
• Flax Egg: The flax eggs help to bind the ingredients together. To make the flax egg required for this recipe, simply mix 2 tbsp of ground flax with 5 tbsp and let it sit for 10 minutes before using. 
• Vegan Butter: I use Earth Balance Vegan Butter. Use whatever brand of butter you like.
• Basics: Baking Soda, Baking Powder, Sea Salt, Vanilla Extract

How to make Gluten-Free Vegan Blueberry Donuts

1. Mix the dry ingredients together. Mix the Wet Ingredients together. Combine the wet and dry ingredients
2. Fold in the Blueberries
3. Use a piping bag or Ziploc bag with the corner cut out to evenly fill the donut pan openings.
4. Bake in the oven.
5. Let the donut cool in the muffin pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. Once the donuts are cooled, dip the donuts in the glaze and place them on the wire rack to set.

How To Make Lemon Blueberry Glaze?

The blueberry glaze for the donuts is made with powdered sugar, so it is not refined-sugar-free. You can skip the glaze if you’d like, but it is quite enjoyable! To make the glaze, simply blend frozen blueberries in a food processor or blender, then add the powdered sugar, and lemon juice. Blend until it is smooth and then it is ready to use!
