Mini Cinnamon Donuts

Prep Time 5 minutes
Baking time 12 minutes
Course Snack
Servings 8 donuts

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¼ cup Gluten-free flour mix
  • ½ cup Sugar
  • 2 tsp Baking powder
  • ¼ tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Cinnamon
  • cup Apple sauce
  • cup Rice milk (or milk of your choice)
  • 1/3 cup Oil (I used rice bran as it has a neutral flavour)

Apple sauce

  • 2 medium Apples (cut into small cubes)
  • 1 cup Water
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 190°C (374°F) and grease a mini donut tray with coconut oil. 
  • If you are making the apple sauce at home, place the chopped apple, water and cinnamon into a small pot. Bring to a boil then allow it to simmer for 15-20 minutes. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes then mash it either with a fork or use a Nutribullet and pulse for 2 seconds.
  • Next add the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl. Add the wet ingredients including the apple sauce, rice milk and oil into a separate bowl and mix well.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the flour mix and stir well (but don't over-stir).
  • Divide the batter eveny into the donut tray. Bake the donuts for 12 minutes then place them on a cooling rack for 5 minutes.
  • This is an optional step but you can brush the donuts with melted coconut oil and roll it in white sugarto give it extra crunch and sweetness.
