Instructions

Donuts

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease 2 donut pans with cooking spray. I like coconut oil or avocado oil spray.
Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix wet ingredients in a small bowl. Then, pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just well combined.
Spoon batter into donut pan molds, filling ¾ way full. You can also pour batter into a large plastic bag, cut the corner off of the bag, and pipe the donut batter into each mold.
Bake the donuts for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow the donuts to cool for a few minutes in the pan, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack.

Glaze

Combine the glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Dip each donut into the icing and place back onto the cooling rack. Sprinkle each donut with flakey sea salt. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

If you don't have a donut pan, you can make this recipe into muffins instead. Bake for the same amount of time.
Dip the donuts into the glaze as soon as possible after removing them from the oven.
Don't overmix the batter or the donuts may come out too dense.
Avoid overfilling the donut pan, fill about ¾ of the way full.
