Combine the wet ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Combine dry and wet ingredients

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Let the batter rest

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the batter rest for 30 minutes to allow the rice flour to hydrate.

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with cooking spray.

6

Fill the donut pan

Carefully spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.

Bake the donuts

Place the donut pan in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the donuts are golden brown and firm to the touch.

Cool and remove from pan

Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Fry the donuts

Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot until it reaches a temperature of 350°F (175°C). Carefully lower a few cooled donuts into the hot oil and fry until they turn golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.

Coat with toppings

Remove the fried donuts from the oil using a slotted spoon and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate. While still warm, coat the donuts with your favorite toppings such as powdered sugar, matcha powder, cocoa powder, or melted chocolate.
