HOW TO MAKE GLUTEN FREE DONUTS RECIPES

Steps:

• Add 1 cup apple cider to pan on medium heat then low. Simmer for 25 minutes with continuous stirring, then reduce to 1/4 cup. It should coat the back of a spoon or finger.
• In a mixing bowl, add 2 1/2 cups flour, yeast and 1 1/2 cups apple cider and salt.
• Cover with clean towel in warm place for 20 minutes.
• Then punch the dough to deflate. Add the coconut oil, apple cider concentrate, eggs, vanilla extract and coconut sugar, 1 cup flour if needed) until dough starts to pull away from the bowl. Should be moist and sticky.
• Form into a ball/mound in the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and put in the fridge for 1 hour.
• Then work on the filling. You could add lemon to the apples to prevent from browning, but it’s already going to get brown anyway.
• In the same pan, add coconut oil, apples, cinnamon, salt, flour, apple cider and coconut sugar. Medium to medium low heat. Cook until apples are softened.
• Take the dough and roll out 1/4 inch thick. Use flour on the rolling pin and cutting board to ensure no sticking. Take a round cutter and cut out as many doughnuts as possible. reuse the scraps too for more donuts or you can make those into doughnut holes.
• Fill the center of the donuts and lay another one on top. Press around the edges to make it a little bigger, then use the same cutter or slightly smaller to press the dough and seal together. This will ensure the filling doesn’t come out when frying.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or tin foil and spray with oil or coat with a thin layer of oil to have the donuts rest. They need to proof for 10-20 minutes until its elastic.
• Heat up to 2-3 inches of canola or grapeseed oil. Bring to 360 degrees F. Cook on each side for 30 seconds to 1 minute until golden brown. Only cook 1-2 donuts at a time to prevent the oil to come down in temp.
• Before cooking the next batch, make sure the oil comes back to the 360 degrees F temp.
• Immediately after, be careful of it being too hot, but coat the donuts in the cinnamon sugar and lay it on a cooling rack.
• Ready to serve right away!
