Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F if you are baking the donuts. Lightly coat a donut form with coconut oil cooking spray. If using an electric donut maker, consult the manufacturer’s instructions for preheating and grease well.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, vanilla, water, and ¼ cup melted butter. Add the Baking Blend, baking powder, salt, and Gentle Sweet and stir to combine.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared donut form and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden on top. Or, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cooking the donuts in an electric donut maker; usually the donuts cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until brown.
-
Remove the donuts from the form or maker, and brush with the remaining 2 to 3 tablespoons melted butter.
