Simple Ingredients for my Gluten Free Baked Donuts
I tried to keep the ingredients and directions very simple for these Gluten Free Baked Donuts. I wanted these to be a healthier treat that you can enjoy without feeling blah afterwards.


Lavva Yogurt
To give these Gluten Free Baked Donuts a soft and moist texture I used Lavva Dairy Free yogurt. I also used Lavva yogurt on top of my donuts for
For these Gluten Free Baked Donuts I used their Strawberry yogurt. It has a delicious subtle sweet flavor that works really well with these baked donuts. You can easily use any Lavva yogurt you’d like in your gluten free donuts.

Coconut Sugar
To keep these baked donuts free of refined sugar I decided to use coconut sugar. It’s a much healthier option that regular refined white sugar. It also adds a warm rich flavor that will make you think of fried donuts.
Coconut sugar can be expensive. If you use a lot of it
Coconut Oil
Instead of using dairy free butter/margarine like I typically do I decided to use coconut oil. It’s a simple ingredient with no junk.
Self-Rising Gluten Free Flour
I wanted to keep this recipe as simple as possible. This recipe is especially easy if you’re using my Gluten Free Self-Rising Flour Recipe. I always suggest keeping a big batch of this flour on hand so that when you need it for a recipe all you have to do is scoop it out.
