Frequently asked questions
Can I make donuts without a donut pan?
Yes, you can make donuts without a doughnut pan. One way is to roll the dough into balls and use your fingers or a small cutter to make the hole in the middle. If you’re baking, place the shaped dough on a lined baking sheet and then bake in the oven. You can also use a muffin tin and create donut shapes with little aluminum foil molds.
How can I make vegan air fried donuts?
To make vegan donuts in the air fryer, prepare the dough as usual, then pop the shaped donuts in a preheated air fryer at 350°F (175°C). Cook them for around 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even baking.
What toppings can I use for vegan donuts?
Aside from the classic vanilla glaze and cinnamon sugar coating, you could try dusting them with powdered sugar, adding sprinkles, or even dipping them in a rich chocolate ganache made with dairy-free chocolate. The possibilities are endless!
How can I make vegan gluten free donuts?
We haven’t tried this recipe gluten-free yet, so we can’t say for sure how it will turn out. Typically, a gluten-free flour blend works better than just using one type of gluten-free flour though, such as a store-bought mix. If you decide to experiment with gluten-free substitutions, we’d love to hear how it goes in the comments!
