I like to use silicon doughnut moulds as they’re easy to get the doughnuts out of and really quick to clean!

Incredibly light and fluffy inside and totally look the part if you’re tying to impress family or friends.
These are by far the best free from doughnuts I have tried and they’re even refined sugar free too which is very rare! Are you drooling yet?
All you need to do is decide which topping you want to go for. The choices are endless!
I persoanlly love crushed pistachios for texture and colour or desiccated coconut.
Now it’s your turn to give them a try!

5 Ingredient Gluten Free & Vegan Doughnuts
Ingredients
- 200 g gluten free self raising flour (I use doves farm)
- 120 ml almond milk other plant-based milks will work
- 6 tbsp maple syrup
- 4 tbsp coconut oil melted
- 3 tbsp cacao powder
- Pinch salt
Method
-
Pre heat your oven to 180C
-
In a large mixing bowl add the gluten free flour, 4 tbsp maple syrup, 2 tbsp melted coconut oil and the milk and mix well into a smooth batter
-
Grease your doughnut mould with coconut oil and add the batter into each mould making sure to smooth over the top
-
Add to the oven for 12-15 minutes (depending how hot your oven runs)
-
Meanwhile prepare the chocolate topping. To a Bain Marie add 2 tbsp melted coconut oil, 2 tbsp maple syrup and then slowly stir in 2 or 3 tbsp cacao powder until desired consistency
-
Finally dunk the doughnuts into the chocolate sauce and place on a drying rack. You can now top with whatever you want. Leave to lightly set for 10-15 minutes
Tips
Try topping with crushed pistachio or desiccated coconut
I got the inspiration for this batter from my Fluffy Free From Pancakes, if you haven’t tried them yet then DO IT!!!

So simple and quick to do! I love seeing them rise in the oven! They work amazing, and have a lovely texture, in my recipe book as I’m sure I’ll be making them a fair bit. Thank you for posting!
Hi Hayley, so pleased you enjoyed them and thanks for sharing your great feedback 🙂
Could these be adapted to make chocolate flavour doughnuts?
Hey Charlotte,
100% you could. Just add cacao powder into the batter mix 🙂 let me know how you get on!
