3. Add remaining ingredients and blend.

4. Fold in yeast mixture with a spatula until donut dough comes together.

5. Separate the dough into 2 balls and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees halfway through waiting for the dough to chill.

6. Roll out the dough to 1” thickness (one ball at a time) on parchment paper that has been sprinkled with gluten free flour to prevent sticking.

Icing

• Mix together with a fork 1/3 c melted coconut butter, 1 T maple syrup, and 1/2 tsp fresh grates nutmeg. Dip top of the donut in icing or use a butter knife to icing. You can get extra fancy and drizzle a little extra maple syrup on each one.
