Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease two donut pans lightly with coconut oil or cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground nutmeg.
In a separate bowl, combine the plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to curdle, creating a vegan 'buttermilk'.
Add the granulated sugar, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the vegan buttermilk mixture. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pans, filling each mold about three-quarters full.
Bake the donuts in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the donuts from the oven and let them cool in the pans for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the donuts are cooling, prepare the honey glaze: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the honey and powdered sugar. Stir continuously until the powdered sugar dissolves completely and the glaze is smooth.
Once the donuts are cool, dip the top of each donut into the honey glaze. Place them back on the wire rack to allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Dairy-Free Honey Dip Donuts warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
