Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1 teaspoons Xanthan gum
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 4 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 Eggs
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 4 cups Vegetable oil for frying
- 1 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.5 cups Additional granulated sugar for coating
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, xanthan gum, salt, and ground nutmeg.
In another bowl, combine the melted butter, 0.75 cups of granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Slowly add the milk to the mixture, stirring until a smooth dough forms.
Cover the dough and let it rest for 15 minutes to allow the dry ingredients to hydrate.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or electric fryer to 350°F (175°C).
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thick. Use a doughnut cutter to cut out doughnut shapes. Gather and roll out scraps as needed.
Carefully place a few doughnuts into the hot oil, frying them until golden brown on each side, about 1-2 minutes per side.
Remove the doughnuts with a slotted spoon and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.
In a shallow bowl, mix the additional 0.5 cups of granulated sugar with the cinnamon.
While the doughnuts are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat.
Serve the doughnuts warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
