Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan gum
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 cups Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract (for cream)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, xanthan gum, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a smooth batter forms. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
Using a spoon or piping bag, shape the dough into rounds and carefully drop them into the hot oil. Fry the donuts in batches for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
For the filling, mix the cornstarch with the milk in a saucepan, stirring until dissolved. Add the powdered sugar and cook over medium heat, stirring until it thickens and boils. Remove from heat.
Stir in the butter and vanilla extract into the thickened mixture and let it cool.
Once the donuts and cream are cooled, use a piping bag with a small tip to fill each donut with the vanilla cream.
Dust the filled donuts with powdered sugar before serving.
