Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Agave syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
• 1 tablespoon Ground flaxseed
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed with the water and let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, mix the almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to create a vegan 'buttermilk'.

Step 5

Add the maple syrup, agave syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil to the 'buttermilk' mixture, whisking until smooth.

Step 6

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and add the thickened flaxseed mixture. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 7

Spoon or pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when lightly pressed.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy the donuts plain or glaze them with additional agave syrup mixed with a touch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
