Gingerbread Doughnuts with Maple Ginger Glaze

Vegan Gingerbread Doughnuts with Maple Ginger Glaze

Vegan Gingerbread Doughnuts
Ingredients
1 3/4 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
pinch of all spice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup oil
1 tbsp vinegar
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup lukewarm water

Directions
Preheat oven to 375F and grease a doughnut pan. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and salt) and mix them up until they're blended together nicely.

Make three wells in dry ingredients, and pour the oil, vinegar, and vanilla into each well separately. Pour the water over everything and mix it all together with a fork, whisk, or whatever you've got around. This batter really isn't picky.


Scoop the batter into each doughnut well, about 2/3 full, and bake for 10-13 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, then remove to a wire rack. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Maple Ginger Glaze
Ingredients
1 cup icing sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1-2 tablespoons water (if needed)

Directions
Combine the icing sugar, syrup, and ginger in a small bowl. Whisk until well combined. Add water, one teaspoon at a time, until it's smooth and glossy, but not too runny.

Dip each cooled doughnut, one at a time, into the glaze to cover one half. Set on a wire rack and repeat with each doughnut until all of them are glazed and delicious.
