  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup strong brewed coffee
  • ¼ cup non-dairy milk almond, oat, soy—whatever keeps your fridge trendy
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

For the Glaze (Optional, but... why would you skip it?):

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your doughnut pan like a responsible adult.

  • In a separate bowl, combine brewed coffee, plant milk, oil, vinegar, and vanilla.
  • Add the wet ingredients into the dry mix and stir gently—no need to beat it like your last bad date.
  • Spoon the batter evenly into the doughnut pan. Smooth the tops with love and low expectations.
  • Bake for 12 minutes or until they bounce back with confidence.
  • Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
  • For glaze, mix powdered sugar, coffee, and cinnamon until smooth.
  • Dip or drizzle the glaze on cooled doughnuts like you're frosting your feelings.
  • Let set, or devour immediately while pretending you're "just tasting."

💡 Additional Notes & Tips

  • For deeper flavor, use dark roast coffee—preferably one that could wake the dead.
  • Add a pinch of clove if you're feeling extra autumnal and dramatic.
  • Store in an airtight container. But let’s be real—they won’t survive the night.
  • Top with crushed nuts or espresso powder if you enjoy fancy toppings and compliments.
  • These pair well with oversized sweaters, candles, and pretending it's sweater weather—even if it’s 80 degrees.
