Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 Large eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 4 cups Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, vanilla extract, eggs, and milk. Whisk until smooth and the ingredients are fully integrated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be smooth and slightly thick.
In a deep pot or saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C), using a thermometer to ensure the correct temperature.
Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, cooking 4-5 donuts at a time to avoid overcrowding.
Fry each donut for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through.
Remove the donuts from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Once slightly cooled but still warm, roll each donut in powdered sugar until evenly coated, using a sieve to sprinkle if preferred.
Serve the donuts warm or at room temperature, enjoying their fluffy texture and sweet coating while fresh.
