Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons Coconut oil, melted
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
• 4 cups Vegetable oil for frying

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine 3/4 cup of unsweetened almond milk with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and let sit for about 5 minutes to create vegan buttermilk.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.

Step 3

Add the vegan buttermilk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined to form a dough.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C).

Step 5

Drop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry in batches if necessary.

Step 6

Fry the donut holes for about 2-3 minutes per batch, turning them occasionally until they are golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the donut holes with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Step 8

For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of unsweetened almond milk until smooth.

Step 9

Once the donut holes are slightly cooled, dip each one into the vanilla glaze and place them on a wire rack to allow the excess glaze to drip off and set.

Step 10

Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving.
