Gluten Free Chocolate Donut Holes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line the bottom of a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Grease the sides of the pan.
• Blend margarine, sugar, and hot chocolate mix in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs 1 at a time and beat until well combined.
• Combine flour, salt, xanthan gum, and baking soda in a separate bowl. Pour into butter mixture and combine. Add vanilla extract; mix well. Pour in soy milk and stir well. Pour mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading to all corners.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Cut into 16 equal-sized pieces and roll into balls.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep fryer (375°F ). You will need at least one -two inches deep of oil. Whilst the oil is heating, prepare the doughnut recipe. Do not leave the heating oil unattended.
• Using a saucepan, heat the water and butter until boiling point is reached. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
• Dump in the potato starch, sugar and salt. Stir until the mixture forms a ball and has pulled away from the sides of the saucepan. (Much like making a choux pastry).
• With an electric mixer, add in the eggs -one at a time. Beat well between adding each egg.
• Drop the batter into the heated oil by small rounded teaspoonfuls, a few at a time. The doughnut holes will puff up as they are cooking to about 1 1/2 inches. Turn them throughout cooking to brown evenly. They'll take approx 5 minutes to cook. Remove from the heat and drain on paper towels.
• While still warm shake them in a plastic bag with cinnamon sugar (2 tablespoons of sugar to 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 6 hole donut pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl blend together the flour, tapioca starch, cocoa, sugar, gum, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and buttermilk powder.
• In a small bowl beat together the eggs, oil and 2 tablespoons water. Pour the mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. If mixture is to thick add in additional water until a smooth, thick, cake batter consistency is achieved.
• Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan, smoothing with a spatula. Place in pre-heated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Allow to rest in pan a minute or two and then turn out onto a wire rack to cool for a few minutes.
• In a small bowl, blend together the coconut oil, cocoa, 1 1/2 tablespoons hot water, sugar and vanilla. Stir until smooth adding in additional water as needed. Place the cooling rack with donuts on a cookie sheet and spoon the chocolate glaze over the donuts allowing the glaze to drip down sides. Immediately top with topping of choice; i.e., peanuts, coconut or nonpareils. Enjoy!
