Instructions

1. 1.

   Preheat the oven to 200°C fan. Grease a donut baking tray with oil.

2. 2.

   In a bowl mix millet flour, cocoa, almonds, coconut, baking powder, cinnamon, xanthan gum, salt, espresso powder, baking soda, chili and cloves well. Grind flaxseed finely and stir with 50 ml water; let stand for about 10 minutes. Then add agave syrup, applesauce, coconut oil and vanilla aroma, and whisk until creamy and airy using a food processor or hand mixer. Gradually add the flour mixture and mix thoroughly. Add about 120 ml water until a spreadable dough forms. Fill the depressions (about half full) of the baking tray and wipe the edges clean. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes. Remove and cool on a wire rack.

3. 3.

   For glazing, whisk powdered sugar with cocoa powder in a bowl and gradually stir in rice milk until a thick glaze forms.

4. 4.

   Release the donuts from the pan, coat them with the glaze and let dry slightly. Sprinkle with a little vanilla sea salt and allow to dry completely.
