Fluffy Dairy-Free Donuts

These soft, fluffy dairy-free donuts are just as indulgent as the classic version—without any milk or butter! Whether glazed, dusted, or filled, they're perfect for breakfast or an afternoon treat.

Ingredients

• In a large bowl, combine warm water and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
• Add sugar, oil, non-dairy milk, and salt. Stir well.
• Gradually add flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms.
• Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5–6 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
• Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
• Roll dough out to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut with a donut cutter or two round cutters.
• Place donuts on parchment paper and let rise for 20–30 minutes.
• Heat oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry donuts 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Mix glaze ingredients and dip warm donuts if desired. Let set before serving.
