Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 3
In another bowl, combine granulated sugar, almond milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract; mix until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 5
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about half full.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when touched lightly.

Remove donuts from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
For the glaze, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave.
Step 9
In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter and powdered sugar, stirring until smooth. If too thick, add a teaspoon of almond milk to reach the desired consistency.
