Ingredients
  

  • Doughnuts
  • 1/2 c. chickpea flour
  • 1/4 c. coconut flour
  • 1 Tbsp. potato starch
  • 2 tsp. gluten-free baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. fine sea salt
  • 1/2 c. coconut sugar

  • 2 Tbsp. melted virgin coconut oil
  • 2 tsp. gluten-free vanilla extract
  • Icing
  • 1/3 c. coconut butter*
  • 1 Tbsp. coconut nectar
  • 1/2 tsp. gluten-free vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Doughnuts
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together chickpea flour, coconut flour, potato starch, baking powder and salt.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together coconut sugar, psyllium, coconut milk, coconut water, coconut oil and vanilla until well blended. Let stand for 5 minutes to thicken.
  • Add the coconut milk mixture to the flour mixture and stir until blended.
  • Divide half the batter equally among prepared doughnut forms (6-count doughnut pan greased with coconut oil; they should be about half full).
  • Bake in preheated 375-degree oven for 12-17 minutes or until doughnuts are golden and spring back when lightly touched. Let cool in pan on a wire rack for 2 minutes, then transfer to the rack.
  • Regrease the pan and repeat the previous two steps with the remaining batter.
  • Icing
  • In a small saucepan set over low heat, melt coconut butter with coconut nectar. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Drizzle or spread over doughnuts. Let cool completely.

Notes

*Coconut oil and coconut butter are NOT the same thing. However, coconut butter and coconut manna are the same thing.
