Vegan Mini Donuts

  • Number of Servings: 24
Ingredients
Dry:1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour1/4 cup unbleached flour1/3 cup sugar1/2 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon baking powder1/4 teaspoon saltWet:1/2 cup low-fat soymilk1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract3 tablespoons soy yogurt (plain or flavor of your choice)1 tablespoon lemon juice1 tablespoon waterGlaze:1/2 cup confectioner's sugar1 tablespoon hot waterfood coloring, optional
Directions
Preheat oven to 325. Spray a mini-donut or muffin pan with canola oil or non-stick spray.

Mix the dry ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl. Combine the wet ingredients in a measuring cup. Pour the wet into the dry and mix well.

Transfer the batter to a pastry bag (or ziplock storage bag) and cut off the tip (or corner). Carefully pipe the batter into each donut mold until it's no more than 2/3 full. (Err on the side of less rather than more, or your donuts will come out shaped funny and lacking a hole on one side!) Bake for 8-12 minutes, until tops are done.

Remove from oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before attempting to remove the donuts from the pan. If necessary, carefully run a toothpick around the edges and centers of the molds to unstick the donuts.

Wash the pan and repeat with the remaining batter.

Once the donuts are cool, prepare the glaze by mixing the confectioner's sugar well with hot water and adding a drop or two of food coloring if desired. (If the glaze seems too thin, add more sugar; if too thick, add more water.) Dip or drizzle the top side of the donut with the glaze. (The bottoms are very spongy and shouldn't be dipped.) Be careful to dip the donut very briefly or it will absorb too much of the glaze. Allow to dry before serving.
