Gluten-Free Apple Cider Doughnut Tips
How can you make gluten-free apple cider doughnuts dairy-free?
A lot of times, people who need to eat gluten-free also need to eat dairy-free. The only dairy in these gluten-free apple cider doughnuts is the butter, and you can easily substitute a
dairy-free butter or margarine in its place. If you’re selecting a margarine, be sure to carefully check the ingredients as many margarines contain some milk.
Can you make a cinnamon sugar coating instead of a glaze?
Not into glazed doughnuts? Try tossing warm doughnuts in a mixture of 1/2 cup sugar and 2 tsp. ground cinnamon. It’s important to toss them in this mixture while they’re still warm in order for the mixture to stick.
How should you store leftover gluten-free apple cider doughnuts?
When
storing foods, especially baked or fried foods, air is usually the enemy. You will want to keep them in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days at most. Nothing beats a hot, fresh doughnut, but if you have some leftover after a few days, you can freshen up them up by popping them an
air fryer for a minute or two. Just be careful to watch the glaze, as it will burn quickly. If you liked this recipe, be sure to try more of our
