Notes

  1. I have tested this recipe with King Arthur Measure for Measure GF, Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 GF blend, and Authentic Foods Multi Blend in this recipe. That doesn't mean others will not work, I just have not tested other flours
  2. If your gluten free flour blend doesn't contain Xanthan Gum, add 1 teaspoon to your dry ingredients.
  3. You can also use almond meal.
  4. If you prefer, you can use brown sugar instead of coconut sugar.
  5. Please do not use pumpkin pie filling.
  6. You can use any non-dairy milk.
  7. Feel free to use a donut maker or bake in the oven in a donut pan.
  8. These donuts will keep up to 4 days in an air-tight container, or up to 4 months in the freezer.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
