In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
In a large, deep pan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
Using a donut cutter, cut out donuts from the dough. If you don't have a donut cutter, you can use a large and a small cookie cutter for the ring shape.
Carefully drop a few donuts at a time into the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the donuts using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
For the glaze, in a small bowl, whisk the powdered sugar with 2 tablespoons of water until you achieve a smooth and thick glaze.
While the donuts are still warm, dip them into the glaze, turning to coat. Let the excess glaze drip back into the bowl before placing them on a wire rack to set.
Serve warm and enjoy your homemade gluten-free classic glazed donuts!
