Vegan Donuts
These mini-donuts are super easy and fun to make... but be careful not to set the smoke alarm off heating the oil like the person who created this recipe did! Makes 10 donuts and a lot of leftover frosting.
Ingredients
Donuts:
1 roll Pillsbury French Loaf
2.5ish cups vegetable oil
Frosting:
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tbsp vegan butter, melted
2 tbsp vegan milk
Topping (very approximate):
.5 tbsp brown sugar
.5 tbsp cinnamon
.5 tbsp vegan sprinkles
Instructions
1. Heat vegetable oil in a sauce pan (use enough for donuts to be able to float in) over medium-low heat; it is ready when it makes small bubbles around something you stick in it.
2. In the mean time, tear the dough into 10 equal pieces. Form them into balls, flatten them a bit, and use your fingers to create a hole in the center. Set aside on a tray.
3. Mix frosting ingredients in a bowl. Mix topping ingredients in another bowl. Feel free to experiment with other toppings or adding flavoring to the frosting!
4. When the oil is ready, simply toss one or two donuts in at a time and flip over with a spatula, counting about 20 seconds on each side or until slightly golden brown. Set finished donuts on a tray lined with a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
5. Hand dip one (or both if you wish) side of each donut in the frosting. Use a spoon to sprinkle topping on the donuts (or dip in the topping if you wish).
6. Eat within a day and enjoy! :)
