Vegan Glazed Doughnuts
Let’s talk doughnuts!
I don’t know about you, but I rarely have a doughnut. For a long time the baked options were taking over Pinterest. While I love healthier alternatives, claiming a baked doughnut to be comparable to a traditional doughnut is just not me. There is a time and place for each, and when it comes to doughnuts..
I prefer the real deal!
I can’t remember the last time I even fried something, but the allure of testing a vegan doughnut recipe has called to me for years. I took a doughnut making class in 2013 while in NYC and the final products were just amazing. You honestly don’t need eggs in many baked goods and you can get away with skipping them altogether.
This recipe typically calls for 2 eggs, but I removed them completely and just added more vegan butter. While the amount of butter seems excessive, it creates the perfect dough and the perfect texture. These were so good, compromised nowhere, that they even tasted better the second day! I swear! (doughnuts typically depreciate in quality within 24hrs)
If the idea of working with yeast gives you anxiety (it used to for me), don’t feel stressed. This recipes is fool proof and you can even make them overnight, which is my preference. So essentially you can make them in 2 hrs, or prep and make them next day!
What’s great about this recipe? Everything! It’s made with staple ingredients, fairly quick, easy, requires no eggs or even flax eggs, you can mix up the coating, make jelly doughnuts, these are perfect for any season, you can make doughnut holes, these are great for entertaining, great for the holidays, great for gifting, the texture mirrors that of traditional doughnuts, and they are just so good!
