Ingredients
  

For the donuts

  • 1 cup pastry flour or all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 4 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup almond milk unsweetend
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6 tablespoons vegetable oil

For the rose glaze

  • 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons vegan butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1/2 teaspoon rose extract optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 175C/350F. Lightly spray a 6 cavity regular sized donut tray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Sieve pastry flour, baking soda, cocoa powder, salt and sugar into a mixing bowl.
  • Add almond milk, vanilla extract and vegetable oil. Whisk until combined, you should have a thick chocolate batter.
  • Dispense batter equally into your donut tray. You can use a piping bag to make it faster and easier.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes or until donuts are springy to the touch and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and leave donuts in the tray for 10-15 minutes. Once slightly cooled, tip them out of the donut tray. Let cool thoroughly.
  • To prepare the glaze, mix powdered sugar, salt and rose extract in a bowl with melted vegan butter and water. Whisk till smooth. If it is too thick, add a touch more water. If it is too watery, add a little bit more powdered sugar.
  • Dip your donuts into the bowl to ice them. You can double dip for a thicker coating of glaze. Allow to set on a cooling tray and enjoy!

Notes

TO STORE: Place your baked donuts in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days.
TO FREEZE: Wrap each donut individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be frozen for up to 2-3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature when ready to enjoy.
