Ingredients
Vegan Chocolate Donuts
- 1 ⅓ cup unsweetened oat or almond milk
- ¼ cup melted vegan butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ cup cocoa powder
- 2 cup regular or gluten free all purpose flour If gluten-free, I recommend King Arthur Measure for Measure gluten-free flour. Please don't substitute any other flour such as almond flour, baking flour, etc.
- 2 tablespoon colorful vegan sprinkles
Vegan Chocolate Frosting
- 1 ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoon unsweetened oat or almond milk
- 1 tablespoon softened vegan butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Vegan Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoon unsweetened oat or almond milk
- 1 tablespoon softened vegan butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Vegan Donut Glaze
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoon unsweetened oat or almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350
- In a large mixing bowl, hand mix the almond or oat milk, melted vegan butter, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and vanilla. Then, whisk in cocoa powder until the mixture is smooth. Mix in the flour until smooth, be careful not to over-mix or the vegan donuts will become dense.
- Spoon the vegan chocolate donut batter into 14-16 silicon donut molds sprayed with nonstick spray. Bake for 25 minutes.
- While donuts are baking, prepare your frosting by mixing the vegan chocolate buttercream frosting, vanilla buttercream icing, or the vegan donut glaze ingredients with an electric hand mixer.
- Remove the donuts from the molds and allow them to cool before frosting and topping with your favorite sprinkles.

Super easy and raised like donuts! My allergen toddler loves these! We made These with oat milk instead of almond and they were a bit heavier but amazing!
This is the 3rd recipe we have used and love following you! We are able to expand our food list being we have severe allergens in this home! Thank you!
