free from: gluten and dairy (vegan and low sugar friendly)
These are PERFECT for Christmas morning. A fun twist on a classic holiday flavor. These gluten free vegan gingerbread donuts are so easy to make.
My husband has quoted these as the best donuts he’s ever had – and he can eat gluten and dairy!

Recipe Details
The recipe is gluten free, dairy free and vegan. For the flour, you can use any 1:1 gluten free flour. You will need a donut plan to make these.
For the topping, you can add a simple glaze and extra powdered sugar. These should be stored in a container, preferably in the fridge. Best eaten right away, though.
