Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 3 tbsp Coconut Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup Non-Dairy Milk
  • 1/4 cup Vegan Butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
  • 1/3 cup Fresh Blueberries

Flax Egg

  • 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 5 tbsp water

Blueberry Lemon Glaze

  • 1/4 cup Frozen Wild Blueberries
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tsp Lemon Juice

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (195°C)
  • In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the flax egg and set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl, combine all of the dry ingredients. In a seperate bowl, combine all of the wet ingredients, including the flax egg.
  • Slowly pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, whisking to combine. The batter should be thick. If it appears too thin, add 1 tbsp of gluten-free flour at a time until it thickens.
  • Fold in the blueberries
  • Lightly grease the donut pan with oil. Using a spoon or pastry bag, fill each donut opening until it is full to the top
  • Bake in the oven for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Take the donuts out of the oven and let the donuts cool for 5 minutes in the pan. Then gently transfer the donuts to a wire rack to cool for 5-10 minutes.
  • Leave the donuts as is, or try topping them with the Blueberry Lemon Glaze!

Notes

*Nutrition Facts are for 1 donut without icing
  • Can sub 1/3 cup Applesauce instead of flax egg to keep vegan or use 2 Eggs for the non-vegan option
  • For best results, when you remove the donuts from the oven, let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes, and then transfer to a cooling rack for up to ten minutes. The longer they cool the more firm they will become, making it easier to add any glaze or icing. 
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Can store in the freezer for up to one month.
