Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the almond milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar. Mix well.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean.
Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the chocolate glaze, melt the vegan chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
Stir in the maple syrup until well combined and the glaze is glossy.
Once the donuts are completely cool, dip the top of each donut into the chocolate glaze and place back on the wire rack to set.
Allow the glaze to set for about 10 minutes or until firm to the touch. Serve and enjoy!
