1

Prepare the donut dough

In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix well.

2

Add the wet ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup of almond milk, 1/4 cup of melted coconut oil, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir until just combined.

3

Shape and fry the donuts

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thick. Use a donut cutter or a round cookie cutter to cut out your donut shapes. Keep the donut holes too! Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C). Carefully drop the donuts into the hot oil, frying for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown. Remove the donuts with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.

4

Make the maple glaze

In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup of powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of maple syrup until smooth. If the glaze is too thick, add a splash of almond milk to thin it out.

5

Glaze the donuts

Dip each donut into the maple glaze, coating the top completely. Allow the excess glaze to drip off, then place the donuts on a wire rack to set. Repeat with all the donuts and donut holes.
