How To Make Baked Donuts Without Yeast

Making baked donuts without yeast is actually pretty easy. Even if you are new to baking, you can easily make baked vegan donuts without yeast. There are two key ingredients which will allow your donuts to achieve a light and fluffy texture without the use of yeast – baking soda and baking powder. If you have these two ingredients, your donuts will have no problem rising as they bake in the oven. Now that we have covered a few quick things to note for this recipe, let’s take a look at all of the ingredients you will need to make these miniature vegan peanut butter baked donuts.


Vegan Miniature Peanut Butter Donuts – Ingredients

  • Quick Oats – The first key ingredient you will need for this recipe are the quick oats. The quick oats will be blended up to form a fine oat flour. This will serve as one of the main dry base ingredients for your donuts.
  • Bread Flour – The second ingredient you will need for this recipe is the bread flour. This ingredient pairs perfectly with the oat flour to create the bulk of the dry base for these vegan baked donuts.
  • Coconut Sugar – The coconut sugar adds a ton of sweetness to the base of your donuts. It is one of my favorite sweeteners to use in baked goods.
  • Baking Powder – The baking powder is the first essential leavening agent used in this recipe to help the donuts rise.
  • Baking Soda – Baking soda acts as the other essential leavening agent for this recipe. This ingredient helps the donuts rise as they bake to achieve a light and fluffy texture.
  • Nut Milk – The nut milk adds moisture and creaminess to this recipe. It serves as the main source of liquid in this recipe to turn the donut mixture into a smooth batter.
  • Pure Maple Syrup – The pure maple syrup is the other important sweetener used in this recipe. It adds flavor and moisture to the donut batter.
  • Unsweetened Applesauce – The applesauce adds moisture and natural sweetness to the donut batter. It is one of my favorite ingredients to use in vegan baked goods.
  • Creamy Peanut Butter – The peanut butter is combined with the coconut oil to act as the icing for the baked donuts. It adds a ton of richness and peanut butter flavor to the donuts. It is also added to the batter for even more peanut butter flavor.
  • Coconut Oil – The coconut oil will be combined with the peanut butter to form the perfect icing for the donuts. This ingredient will ensure that the peanut butter icing on top of the donuts hardens.
  • Finely Chopped Peanuts – The finely chopped peanuts will be sprinkled on top of the icing on the donuts for crunch and even more peanut flavor.
