Ingredients You Need for Cereal Doughnuts [Vegan]
How to Prepare Cereal Doughnuts [Vegan]
- In a large bowl to a stand mixer, combine yeast and warm water. Stir together until yeast begins to dissolve.
- Add almond milk, sugar, vegan butter, applesauce, and 1 cup of flour. Beat on low for 30 seconds, then increase the speed to medium and beat for another 2 minutes.
- Add the remaining flour and beat on low until flour is incorporated and a ball of dough is formed. Cover the bowl with a towel or paper towel and let rest for about an hour.
- Cover a portion of your counter in parchment paper and dust generously with flour. Pour dough onto flour coated parchment paper and roll out using a rolling pin, adding flour when needed. Roll until the dough is between 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch in thickness.
- Use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 12 squares. Use an empty beer bottle, or other empty glass bottle, to cut out a hole in the center by pressing the neck of the glass into the center of each square and giving the bottle a quick twist. Gently separate the squares of dough. Cover dough with a paper towel and let rise for another 45 minutes.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or wok, over medium heat, until it reaches 350°F.
- Gently slide doughnuts, in batches, into the oil. Fry for about 45-60 seconds on each side, or until golden brown.
- Transfer doughnuts to a cooling rack lined with paper towels.
- Once doughnuts are cool, brush with glaze or top with toppings of choice.
- To make the glaze, combine powdered sugar, vanilla, and water, a little bit at a time. Whisk together, adding water slowly as needed, until a consistency similar to glue is achieved.
