Double Chocolate Donuts

I recently got a few donut pans and I’ve been OBSESSED with making donuts. They’re so much more fun than a cupcake and are so so versatile. This double chocolate donut is super chocolatey and rich, but also not too heavy. It might just rival Dunkin Donuts!

Prep Time: Bake Time:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup gluten free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum included)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 egg
  • 3-4 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup of milk

Icing:

  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 3-4 tbsp cocoa powder
  • splash of milk

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 350 and prep your donut pan (unless silicon, which doesn’t need to be prepped)
  • Mix together all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl
  • Once evenly mixed, add in all wet ingredients (except icing ingredients) until smooth
  • Put batter into a plastic bag and cut a hole in one of the bottom corners to make a piping bag, and then pipe batter into donut pan (this makes it a lot easier to evenly distribute than using a spoon!)
  • Bake for ~11 mins
  • While baking, make the icing by mixing powdered sugar and cocoa powder together, and then slowly adding milk a little at a time, to ensure icing gets the right consistency and isn’t too runny
  • Allow donuts to cool for 10 mins before adding icing, so it doesn’t melt
