Ingredients

  • 1 cup of organic gluten free buckwheat flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoon of baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon of baking soda
  • ⅛ teaspoon of himalayan pink salt
  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon of nutmeg
  • ⅓ cup of coconut palm sugar or maple, coconut nectar
  • ⅓ cup of coconut milk or other nut milk, see link above for homemade recipe
  • 1 small egg
  • 1 tablespoon of coconut oil and extra for the donut pan
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla powder

For cinnamon sugar

  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • ¼ cup of coconut palm sugar for dusting

Instructions

  • Pre heat oven on gas mark 4/350F/180C
  • Coat the donut pan with coconut oil so that the mixture won't stick
  • Combine the flour, spices, vanilla, baking soda, baking powder, coconut sugar and pink salt in a large bowl and stir thoroughly.
  • In a separate bowl add the milk, egg and coconut oil together and whisk briskly for a few seconds.
  • Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and combine thoroughly.
  • Whisk into a smooth, lump free batter.
  • Spoon the batter into each donut ring evenly and place in the oven for 10-11 minutes.
  • Insert a toothpick to determine readiness, if it's cooked, it should come out without the batter on the pick. If not return to the oven to cook a little longer.
  • Once cooked remove pan from oven, and set aside for 5 minutes to cool, and then move to wire rack.
  • Roll donuts in cinnamon sugar (or use a zip lock bag and add the sugar and cinnamon, seal and shake a donut at a time)whilst warm and store on wire rack

Notes

Use whisk or immersion blender to blend the batter
Once in oven, check towards the end of cooking time, so air doesn't cause donuts to collapse.
Make sure to grease pan to omit sticking
