Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Whole milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 cups Oil for frying
- 0.5 cup Jam of choice

Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, granulated sugar, and salt.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, warm the milk and butter over low heat until the butter is melted. Allow to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and vanilla extract.
Step 4
Pour the milk and butter mixture into the dry ingredients, followed by the egg mixture. Stir until a smooth dough forms.
Step 5
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth.
Step 6
Roll the dough to about 1/2-inch thickness and cut out circles with a 3-inch round cutter.

Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or large heavy skillet to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the dough circles, a few at a time, frying until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
Step 8
Remove donuts with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Allow cooling slightly.
Step 9
Fill a piping bag fitted with a small round tip with your choice of jam.
