My kids get so excited when their mama makes baked donuts in the morning! Usually for special occasions, but sometimes because I love them so much. For my daughters 9th birthday, I baked up a batch of these raspberry almond donuts. They’re pink! Her favorite. They are also baked donuts and are low in fat. The addition of pure almond extract is perfect paired with the fresh raspberry glaze. I think these gluten free vegan baked raspberry almond donuts make any morning just a bit brighter and even more delicious!

Since not everyone should have a gluten free diet, how is this recipe with traditional unbleached flour?
Seems like an odd query as this is a "gluten free" website by title and, it's for gluten free cooking/baking. 🙂 Perhaps you could use a gluten free conversion chart for flour to figure out the amount in regular/non-gf flour? Easy to find with a google search.
Uh, why don't you just bake it and find out Krystal?
In addition to being gluten-free, this recipe ALSO happens to be vegan. Obviously, not all vegans who enjoy donuts are necessarily on a gluten-free diet. I was directed here because the recipe is vegan, too.
They're in the oven! <3
Total newbie at gluten-free baking here. In my humble and inexperienced opinion, these do not come out "golden brown" AND edible. The 18 minutes is good, but they are off white, and even though the recipe says, "baked through" and says nothing about inserting a toothpick–I did, to see if they were baked through and this was NOT a good indication of when to take them out of the oven AT ALL. They ARE delicious and they do look beautiful! I would liked to have known up front how full to fill each of the donut "cups" as I had also never used a donut pan before. I could not tell by taste that these are gluten free–never would have guessed that part if I hand't made them myself. Yes, I used "Sarah's Gluten Free Flour Blend" recipe above. Maybe this was just a lesson for me in learning that gluten free baked goods turn out considerably lighter in color than what I'm used to?
Geez, she asked a simple question. I was also directed here by a vegan facebook page. And I was wanting to know the same thing. A tad bit on the snarky side, aren't we? Nothing wrong with asking.
Well there are plenty of vegan recipes that aren't gluten free out there. As someone who is both I am very grateful for something that fits my dietary restrictions.
Smile, your type of pan or oven may make a difference but yes sometimes gf doesen't darken as much either. Baked donuts are kind of like muffins so don't overload the pan but you can probably fill it to the top safely.
