Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cups Fresh strawberries, finely chopped
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or any gluten-free milk alternative)
- 2 pieces Large eggs, room temperature
- 0.25 cups Melted coconut oil (or unsalted butter)
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Strawberry puree (made by blending fresh strawberries)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a donut pan with non-stick spray or coconut oil.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, sift together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the granulated sugar.
In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, eggs, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until a smooth batter forms. Avoid over-mixing.
Gently fold the finely chopped strawberries into the batter, distributing them evenly.
Using a piping bag or spoon, fill the wells of the prepared donut pan about two-thirds full with the batter.
Bake the donuts in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and strawberry puree in a small bowl until smooth. Adjust consistency with additional strawberry puree if needed.
Dip the tops of the cooled donuts into the glaze and set them back on the wire rack to let the glaze set for about 10 minutes.
Serve and enjoy your fresh, gluten-free strawberry donuts!
