These easy Baked Vegan Donuts are perfectly light, fluffy and moist! This banana donut recipe is plant based and can be whipped up in less than 30 minutes! The cinnamon sugar coating is incredible, but optional if you want to keep these a little on the lighter side.
Love a simple vegan baking recipe? Well that’s convenient because you need to try these No bake Cheerio Bars, my Amazing Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies, as well as my easy Peanut Butter Bars.
My family went nuts over these Baked Vegan Donuts! They are the best addition to your breakfast or brunch menu, and you’re going to love them. They disappeared SO fast in my house, and I’ll definitely be making another batch soon!
I already have a Pumpkin Vegan Donuts recipe but really wanted to have a simple vegan donut recipe that’s wonderful all year round. These turned out better than I could have dreamed!
Ingredients you’ll need
This vegan donut recipe packs in the nutrients with nut butter, mashed banana and they are naturally sweetened with pure maple syrup! Here are the main ingredients
Flour: I recommend using all-purpose or whole wheat pastry flour for a soft, tender crumb. To keep these gluten free, use a 1-to-1 gluten-free all-purpose flour.
Maple syrup: For the perfect amount of natural sweetness.
Non-dairy milk: Any dairy-free milk will work great! I typically like to use almond milk, soy milk or oat milk.
Nut butter: Gives these donuts a boost of healthy fats while making the texture absolutely perfect.
Mashed banana: For moisture and extra natural sweetness.
How to make this recipe
Make the batter: in a large bowl, mash the bananas and mix in the remaining wet ingredients. Add the dry ingredients in and mix.
Pie into the pan: I put the batter in a piping bag and pipe it into the donut pan but you can also just use a spoon.
Frequently asked questions
Baked donuts are really delicious but they don’t taste exactly like fried donuts. They will also have more of a cakey texture more like a muffin or small round cake.
Once these have been baking for 15 minutes, check on them and if they look golden brown and set, insert a toothpick in the middle and if it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs they’re done.
Yes, mix 1 cup powdered sugar with 2 to 3 tbsp of milk and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. Dip the cooled donuts into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off.
If your donuts are sticking to the pan, my advice is to make sure that you grease the pan well. I never have any issues as long as the donut pan is well greased.
