Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for 5 minutes to curdle, creating a dairy-free 'buttermilk'.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.
Add the 'buttermilk', vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Spoon the batter evenly into the greased donut pan, filling each mold about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts are lightly golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Remove the donuts from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and water in a small bowl until smooth.
Once the donuts are completely cool, dip the top of each donut into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off.
Immediately sprinkle the glazed donuts with dairy-free rainbow sprinkles before the glaze sets.
Let the donuts sit for a few minutes for the glaze to harden slightly before serving.
