How to Prepare Chocolate Candy Cane Donuts [Vegan]

Preheat oven to 350°F
In a small bowl, combine 1 tbs ground flax with 3 tbs warm water. Set aside to thicken
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, milk, melted coconut oil, flax egg, and vanilla extract
Add the dry ingredients to the wet, and mix until combined
Pour batter into a piping bag or ziplock bag with a corner cut off, and pipe into a greased donut pan
Don’t over fill the wells, pipe around once in a circular motion into each well
Bake for 14-17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the donuts comes out clean and the donuts spring back when touched - 15 minutes was perfect for me
Allow donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then remove and continue to cool on a cooling rack
Combine all ingredients for the glaze in a bowl and stir until fully combined. You may need to add a bit more milk if too thick, or some more icing sugar if too thin
Dip cooled donuts into the glaze
Press the freshly glazed donuts into the crushed candy canes
Allow glaze to set before stacking donuts on top of each other or transporting
Enjoy!
