Ingredients
-
1 cup
flour
-
3/4 cup
sugar
-
1 teaspoon
baking powder
-
2 teaspoons
lime zest
-
1/4 teaspoon
salt
-
1
egg
-
1/4 cup
coconut milk
-
1/2 tablespoon
vinegar
-
2 tablespoons
melted butter, cooled
-
1 teaspoon
vanilla
-
1 to 2 tablespoons
lime juice
-
1/2 cup
powdered sugar
-
1 cup
shredded coconut
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 350 or preheat mini donut maker. In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, lime zest, and salt until well incorporated. In a large measuring cup add vinegar and regular milk and let sit for 5 minutes.
-
In a separate, smaller bowl, whisk together coconut milk, egg and vanilla extract. Once mixed, whisk in melted butter and then finally the milk/vinegar mixture.
-
Pour wet ingredient mixture over dry ingredient mixture and whisk until just smooth. Once oven/donut maker is preheated, spray either a mini donut pan or the odnut maker with cooking spray.
-
Fill donut cavities 1/2 way full with batter, then bake for 3-5 minutes, or until donuts spring back lightly when pressed and a toothpick comes out clean.Carefully remove donuts from pan or donut maker and let cool while you whip up the glaze.
-
For the glaze: whisk together juice and powdered sugar until a thin glaze forms. If mixture is too thick, add more lime juice. If too thin, add a little more powdered sugar. You just want to lightly coat the donuts in it and for the coconut to stick to it.
-
Dip both sides of donut in lime glaze, then roll completely in shredded coconut to coat. Let sit on cooling rack to dry.
