Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 pieces Large eggs, room temperature
• 0.5 cup Buttermilk, room temperature
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 0.75 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a doughnut pan with non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, vanilla extract, eggs, buttermilk, and milk until well combined.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined and smooth. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Spoon the batter into a large resealable plastic bag or piping bag. Cut a corner of the bag and squeeze the batter evenly into the prepared doughnut pan molds, filling each about two-thirds full.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the doughnuts spring back when touched and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Step 7

Allow the doughnuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

To make the chocolate glaze, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 9

Sift the powdered sugar into the melted chocolate mixture and whisk until the glaze is smooth and glossy.

Step 10

Once the doughnuts are completely cool, dip the top of each doughnut into the chocolate glaze, allowing the excess to drip off.

Step 11

Place the glazed doughnuts back on the cooling rack to set. Serve and enjoy your gluten-free chocolate glazed doughnuts!
