Ingredients

Baked Donuts:

  • 155 g gluten-free 1-to-1 flour
  • 80 g powdered sugar
  • 4 g (1 tsp) baking powder
  • 1 g (¼ tsp) baking soda
  • 10 g corn starch
  • 136 g unsweetened vanilla oat milk
  • 5 g apple cider vinegar
  • 45 g dairy-free yogurt
  • 5 g pure vanilla extract
  • 13 g dairy-free melted butter

Salted Pistachio White Chocolate Glaze: 

  • 40 g salted pistachios
  • 175 g white chocolate
  • Optional for colour: ½ tsp Blue Butterfly Pea Supercolor Powder (From Suncore Foods® - This recipe post is not sponsored)
  • Optional for colour: ¼ tsp Aqua Blue Spirulina Supercolor Powder from Suncore Foods® - This recipe post is not sponsored)

Instructions

Baked Donuts:

  1. Preheat oven to 350º F and prepare a donut tray by brushing some butter on the inside of the donut cavities.
  2. Dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda. 
  3. Wet ingredients: In another bowl, dissolve corn starch into oat milk and mix until frothy. Mix in remaining ingredients until well combined.
  4. Add wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients and mix well forming a batter. Spoon or pipe the batter into donut molds, filling each mold to approximately two-thirds full. Over filling the batter will make the donuts overflow while baking, though they will still taste great!
  5. Bake for 16 minutes and allow donuts to cool completely before adding the glaze.

Salted Pistachio White Chocolate Glaze:

  1. Crush pistachios and set aside.
  2. Using your preferred method, temper white chocolate. Sift in Supercolor Powders (if using) and mix until well combined. 
  3. While the chocolate is warm, dip each donut into the glaze, covering the top half of the donuts and place glazed donuts on a flat surface. Before the glaze solidifies, sprinkle crushed pistachios on half of each donut. As the donuts cool and the glaze solidifies, the pistachios will set into the glaze. Allow donuts to cool completely before serving.
