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.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Servings: 12 donuts
Course: Dessert

Ingredients
  

  • 100 g gluten-free oat flour
  • 100 g buckwheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/3 tsp salt
  • 20 dried dates
  • 2 tbsp flax meal
  • 8 tbsp water
  • 3 tsp gingerbread spice
  • 3 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 250 g water

Method
 

  1. In a larger bowl, mix flours, add baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Next, create a flax "egg" by combing flax meal and 8 tbsp of water. Let it sit for 5 minutes, or until it creates gel-like consistency.
  3. Mash dates with a fork and adds them into dry ingredients along with lemon juice, gingerbread spice, vanilla, and water.
  4. Mix everything well and prepare a donut pan. Don't forget to grease your pan with coconut oil!
  5. Bake the donuts for 20 minutes at 170 °C (340F).
  6. After baking, cool them down completely, and feel free to decorate them with your favorite frosting. Enjoy!
