Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 Large eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 4 cups Vegetable oil for frying
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, vanilla extract, eggs, and milk. Whisk until smooth and the ingredients are fully integrated.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be smooth and slightly thick.
Step 4
In a deep pot or saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C), using a thermometer to ensure the correct temperature.
Step 5
Using a spoon or a small ice cream scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, cooking 4-5 donuts at a time to avoid overcrowding.
Step 6
Fry each donut for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked through.
Step 7
Remove the donuts from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 8
Once slightly cooled but still warm, roll each donut in powdered sugar until evenly coated, using a sieve to sprinkle if preferred.
Step 9
Serve the donuts warm or at room temperature, enjoying their fluffy texture and sweet coating while fresh.
