I have to say, I am not a vegan. Super far from it actually. But I needed a vegan option for my husband’s coffee shop. And geez, these are amazing!! I loved, loved, loved them!

In reply to Tiffany. I'm glad you enjoyed them! They'll come out at a size related to how much batter you used in each cupcake/muffin hole. Donut pans don't hold as much batter as muffin pans so if you made 6 muffins then they would be small. When you make muffins you need to fill the wells up to about 3/4 full and this recipe only makes 6 donuts. At a guess I'd think you'd get 3 (maybe 4) full size muffins from a batch of this batter. If you divided it between 6 holes then that explains why they are small. You could double the recipe if you make them again so you can make each one large and get a bigger batch.

I made these yesterday and they came out so good!!!! But I made them as cupcakes cause I didn’t have a donut pan, and they cake out very small? Very small mini cupcakes? I used a large standard muffin pan they were so tiny but so good, are the cupcake version meant to be tiny? Lol

I haven’t made these donuts but did make the muffin version from your cookbook and all I can say is ‘WOW’. It took sheer willpower to not eat the entire batch in one sitting. They were amazing. I ran out of orange juice for the frosting so combined what I had left with lemon juice and it was a beautifully delightful flavor. These are a must and so, so easy.

I made these yesterday and they are amazing. Wow.
I used oat milk kefir for the milk and so left out the vinegar because I wasn't sure if that would work. I also used only 3tbsp of (coconut) sugar, because I'm trying to use less sugar and so always try to see what I can get away with. Both modifications worked beautifully.
I made the icing, but as others have said, I found it too sweet. But more than that, it overpowered the subtlety of olive oil, which is what makes these delicious. Really, really so good. Thank you!!

Hi there!

I've tried this recipe yesterday, I never made donuts in the oven and I really wanted to. The taste is amazing. The texture is so soft, but I think maybe you can out in less orange juice in order to make them a little bit "dryer"? I followed the recipe exactly and I had that "problem" and also, the frosting is too much liquid. Other than that, thank you very much!
