Instructions

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F. Grease a 12‑count muffin pan generously and set it aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add 2 1/2 cups self‑rising flour. Pour in 1/2 cup maple syrup, 1/4 cup melted coconut oil, and 1 cup milk (unsweetened almond milk if using). Stir with a spatula or spoon until the batter is just combined and there are no large streaks of flour.
  • Transfer the batter into a resealable plastic bag (zip‑top). Press the batter toward one corner and seal the bag, removing excess air.
  • Snip off one corner of the bag (about 1/2 inch) to make a piping hole. Squeeze the batter into the greased muffin pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
  • Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly touched.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let the donuts sit in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer them to a rack or plate to cool completely.
  • Put 1/2 cup powdered sugar in a shallow bowl or plate. Once the donuts are completely cool, dip or roll each donut in the powdered sugar to coat and shake off any excess.
  • Serve the powdered donuts immediately or store them in an airtight container.
