Awesome! I cooked it for my husband! He has a sweet tooth and asks to cook them again and again.

will almond milk work in place of the soy milk? perhaps cashew milk might be better?

In reply to Voula Kanavas. Whole milk would work fine. Can your daughter do peanuts? That would be an option. Or you could add some lightly salted and toasted coconut flakes.

I just made your apple cider donuts and they are amaaaaze! Searched to find a chocolate one and came across this- my daughters are egg and nut allergic but not dairy ; will regular whole milk work for the batter and the ganache ? Any other suggestions for a salty topper that isn’t a nut.. hmm ?

Hi! Love your site and I’ve made several of your recipes. I’m going to try these doughnuts for my son’s birthday breakfast surprise. Wondering if I can sub coconut oil for the canola oil? I usually do in baking recipes, but I’ve never made doughnuts before so I wasn’t sure. Thanks!

In reply to Ainsley. You could try chickpea flour or any other fruit puree that doesn't have a strong taste. Check out my guide here for some ideas.

Hi, what other vegan alternatives are there for the applesauce in the recipe? it’s not available where I live, and hoping for something that isn’t a vegan processed product either! Cheers

Lovely recipe, but very cake-ish; I think my husband said he'd prefer a more donut-like density. Any adjustments we could make to achieve this? Thanks so much for the recipes!

So from your experience, are cake donuts just normal cake in donut pans?

In reply to tammie. They are supposed to be cake-like in texture. If yours were too dense, you could try and add a little less liquid. You don't want to mix them more than you have to because that makes the finished product tough.

Hi,

I made them today, but they turned out a bit dense and not spongy. I stirred the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined as indicated, but perhaps I should mix them more throughly? Thanks.
