Easy baked gingerbread donuts - gluten-free and vegan recipe
Christmas is just around the corner, so we can slowly tune in to the festive atmosphere. Although gingerbread cookies are traditional for Christmas, I decided to make it into easy baked gingerbread donuts, with sweet icing. The full recipe is vegan, gluten-free, and sugar-free.

Instructions
- In a larger bowl, mix flours, add baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

- Mash dates with a fork and adds them into dry ingredients along with lemon juice, gingerbread spice, vanilla, and water.
- Mix everything well and prepare a donut pan. Don't forget to grease your pan with coconut oil!
