cinnamon sugar donuts

There is always a higher chance of donuts on Sunday mornings. Today we got cinnamon sugar donuts. You expect a baked donut to be a little dense, but these are fluffier. Can't decide which I prefer.

Cinnamon Sugar Donuts

1 c. gf flour mix

2 T. brown sugar

1/2 t. salt

1/2 t. baking powder

1/2 t. baking soda

1/2 t. cinnamon

1 egg

2 T. oil

1/2 t. vanilla

1/2 t. vinegar

1/2 c. almond milk

Topping: 1/4 c. sugar + 1 t. cinnamon

Preheat the oven to 350. 

Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. Mix the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well. 

Transfer the batter into a sandwich bag and clip a corner. Pipe into a greased donut pan. These rise quite a bit- the batter should be level with the center indentation. 

Bake for 8-10 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Spray the top of a warm donut with cooking spray and dunk it into the bowl of cinnamon/sugar. Do this twice for each donut.

the best and easiest peanut butter cookies

I've made a lot of peanut butter cookies. Of all the recipes I've tried, this is the best. And easiest. No flour & naturally dairy free. 

Peanut butter cookies

1 c. peanut butter*

1/3 c. brown sugar

1/2 t. salt

1 egg (or, 1 T. flax seed meal + 3 T. hot water)

1/4 t. vanilla

1 t. baking soda

1/4 t. cinnamon (optional)

chocolate chips (optional)

Preheat the oven to 350. Beat the peanut butter and sugar for 2 minutes. Add in the rest of the ingredients and beat until a dough forms. The dough may be slightly crumbly. Form into balls, place on a greased cookie sheet, and flatten with a fork. Bake for 8-10 minutes. The cookies will be really soft but firm up after they cool.

The dough freezes well. I freeze it on wax paper in the flattened balls and take out a few at a time.

*If you spray the measuring cup with cooking spray, the peanut butter will come out easier.
