For the Vegan Donuts

  • Combine the apple cider vinegar and milk in a bowl.  Let sit for 10 minutes. This makes vegan buttermilk.

  • Add all the dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk together. 
  • Once buttermilk is ready, add in the wet ingredients in with dry and mix well. 
  • Pour batter into greased pans, a little over half full. 
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cooked thoroughly.  
  • Make glaze while you wait.
