Gluten Free donuts

Donuts in an oil fryer

Pamela's Products


4-1/4 cups Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix, plus some for dough handling
1/4 cup melted butter
2/3 cup milk or buttermilk (optional: add 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice to milk)
2 eggs
1 cup white or brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

Mix all ingredients together. Dust counter with additional Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix, scoop out about 1/3 cup dough at a time. Coat top and bottom with Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix. With thumb, pierce center of dough and create doughnut shape. Preheat oil in fryer to 365° to 375° and carefully lower doughnut into oil. Fry for approximately one minute on each side.

Variation for use with a donut maker:

Use only 2-3/4 cups Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix, and a total of 1 cup milk or buttermilk. This recipe needs a kitchen donut maker machine. the batter is like a thick pancake batter. Mix all ingredients together and bake in doughnut machine according to machine directions.

Chocolate Glaze for Donuts


1 ounce melted unsweetened chocolate
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2-1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons milk

Mix all ingredients together, adding milk slowly until correct consistency for glazing. Frost cooled donuts. Sprinkle with candies, coconut, chopped nuts, etc.
