Falling Leaves & Maple Trees | Maple Spiced Vegan Doughnuts

Sunday's in our house start with a home cooked breakfast followed by some light laundry and lots of quality time. Sunday's are made for recharging and resetting for the week ahead. Start your Sunday off with maple spiced vegan doughnuts.

Ingredients:

Maple Spiced Doughnuts:

2 cups of all purpose flour

2/3 cup of granulated sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (replaces two eggs)

1 cup of almond milk

2 tablespoons maple syrup

Vegan Glaze:

1/4 cup vegan butter

1 & 1/3 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

1 tablespoon of hot water

1 tablespoon of maple syrup

My mom didn’t enjoy the store bought pancake mix but you can also use vegan Bisquick original. Use applesauce and almond milk to complete the recipe on the back of the box. Check Bisquick's website for updated information as this information is subject to change.

Supplies:

Mixing Bowl

Baby Cakes Doughnut Maker or Doughnut molds

Drying Rack

Fork

Various sized measuring cups & measuring spoons

Directions:

Combine the dry ingredients for the batter in a mixing bowl and slowly add the wet ingredients of applesauce and almond milk. Yes, it's really that easy.

Pour the batter into doughnut molds to pop into the oven or pour into a doughnut maker to bake.

After the doughnuts have baked, remove the doughnuts from the molds and allow the doughnuts to cool. Use a fork to help remove the doughnuts from the molds!

Allow the doughnuts to cool before dipping them into the icing.

Now that your doughnuts are cool, dip the doughnuts in the icing and place back on the rack to drip off the excess icing. I added a little extra decoration with some vegan chocolate.

Once the icing is dried, plate your doughnuts and enjoy!
