Calories: 189kcal
- 1 ½ cup All Purpose Flour
- ½ cup Sugar
- 2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- 1 Egg
- 1 cup Lucky Charms
- 1 ¼ cup Almond Milk
- ¼ cup Coconut Oil
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla
Donut Glaze
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 tablespoon Almond Milk
Preheat the oven to 400°. Spray the donut tins with cooking spray to avoid sticking.
In a liquid measuring cup or a bowl, add the almond milk and the Lucky Charms cereal. Let that sit for 10 minutes.
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set that aside.
After the ten minutes is up, strain out the cereal and discard it, but save the milk in a bowl. Add the egg, coconut oil, and vanilla to the bowl. Mix to combine.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix everything until it is combined. Do not overmix.
Pipe or spoon the batter into the prepared donut tins. This batter should make 10-12 donuts depending on how much you fill each tin.
Bake for 25-30 minutes. A toothpick should be inserted into the donut and come out clean. Take the donuts out of the tin and place them on a wire rack to cool while you make the glaze.
Make the Glaze
In a bowl, mix all the ingredients together. If the glaze is too liquid, add more powdered sugar. If the glaze is too thick, add more milk. It should be a thick, pourable glaze.
When the donuts have cooled, dip them into the glaze to coat. You can also use a butter knife to spread the glaze all over the donuts. Top with Lucky Charms if you would like to decorate them. Serve immediately.
