How to Prepare Baked Chocolate Donuts With Ganache Frosting [Vegan, Gluten-Free, Nut-Free]
For the Donuts:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease the donut pan with coconut oil and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa, flours, coconut sugar, psyllium, baking soda, salt and spices.
- In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the liquid ingredients: yogurt, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, olive oil and water.
- Use a spatula to fold the wet ingredients into the dry, and stir until completely smooth. Spoon the batter into each donut ring, about 3/4 full. Smooth the batter using a spatula or your finger.
- Place in the oven and bake for 5 minutes, rotate the pan, and then bake for another 5 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the centre should come out dry and the donuts should be springy to touch. Allow to cool in the pan for a few minutes, and then flip out onto a flat surface to cool.
- Use a knife or off-set spatula to frost each donut, then serve. Donuts taste the best when they are fresh, so plan to serve them the day you make them.
For the Ganache:
- Place a bowl over a small pot filled with a few inches of water. Put the chopped chocolate and the coconut milk in the bowl. Set the heat to medium-low and allow the chocolate to melt as the milk heats up.
- Gently whisk until completely smooth and glossy, then set aside for a couple minutes.
Notes
These donuts also freeze well for a couple weeks. Allow to defrost at room temperature and serve.
