Indulge in the irresistible charm of these Vegan Mini Donuts—soft, fluffy, and perfectly spiced with aromatic cinnamon and nutmeg. This easy plant-based recipe uses wholesome ingredients like almond milk, pure maple syrup, and coconut oil to create a deliciously moist and tender treat. Ready in just 35 minutes, these mini donuts are baked, not fried, making them a healthier yet equally satisfying option. Perfect for breakfast, dessert, or a snack, they’re ideal for sharing at parties or enjoying with a warm cup of coffee. Add your favorite glaze or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for a customizable finishing touch that’s sure to impress!
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini donut pan with a little melted coconut oil or non-stick spray.
In a small bowl, mix unsweetened almond milk with apple cider vinegar and let it sit for about 5 minutes to create vegan buttermilk.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
Add the vegan buttermilk, pure maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and pure vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
Spoon the batter into a piping bag or a ziplock bag with a corner snipped off. Pipe the batter evenly into the greased mini donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts are light golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, feel free to glaze or dust the donuts with powdered sugar, if desired. Enjoy your vegan mini donuts!
