Ingredients
2 cups Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Flour (with xanthan gum)
1/2 cup Granulated sugar
2 tsp Baking powder
1 tsp Ground cinnamon
2 Large eggs (room temperature)
3/4 cup Milk (or dairy-free alternative)
4 tbsp Unsalted butter (melted for coating)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a standard donut pan with non-stick spray.
Whisk the gluten-free flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl until fully combined.
Beat the eggs and milk together in a separate small container.
Combine the wet and dry ingredients slowly until a smooth batter forms.
Transfer the batter into a piping bag or a large plastic freezer bag with the corner snipped.
Pipe the batter evenly into the donut pan cavities until they are three-quarters full.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the donuts to cool slightly before dipping into melted butter and tossing in additional cinnamon sugar.
Notes
Ensure ingredients are at room temperature for the best emulsion. Use high-quality Ceylon cinnamon for the best flavor. Store in an airtight container to keep them soft for several hours.
