Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Prepare for Frying: Heat olive oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed saucepan to 300°F (150°C). Ensure there's enough oil for the donuts to float freely. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Combine the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, gluten-free all-purpose flour, egg, almond flour, coconut flour, honey, and guar gum. Use a hand mixer to blend until the mixture is smooth and resembles a thick pancake batter. (5 minutes)

03

Step
15 mins

Fry the Donuts: Carefully drop spoonfuls of batter, a few at a time, into the preheated oil. Avoid overcrowding the fryer to maintain the oil temperature. Fry the donuts until they are golden brown and cooked through, approximately 3 to 5 minutes per batch. (10-15 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Cool and Coat: Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried donuts to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. While still warm, gently roll each donut in a bowl of confectioners' sugar until fully coated. (5 minutes)

05

Step
0 mins

Serve: Enjoy these gluten-free donuts immediately while they're fresh and warm!

For best results, ensure your oil temperature remains consistent. If the oil is too hot, the donuts will brown too quickly on the outside while remaining undercooked inside.
Feel free to experiment with different coatings, such as cinnamon sugar or a simple glaze, to customize the flavor.
These donuts are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before serving to restore some of their original warmth and texture.

    The guar gum is key! It really helps with the texture. I also added a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
