Gluten Free Drop Doughnut Recipe

Recently Katz Gluten Free Bake Shoppe sponsored a fantastic giveaway on Gluten Free Taste of Home. In order to enter, readers were asked to mention a gluten free baked good that they missed eating, and would like Katz Gluten Free to consider making. Joseph from Katz Gluten Free must have noticed that several of you mentioned missing doughnuts, so he kindly offered to share his quick and easy recipe for Gluten Free - Dairy Free Drop Doughnuts with Gluten Free Taste of Home readers. Thank you Joseph!

Gluten Free Dairy Free Drop Doughnuts

Dry Ingredients

1/2 cup white rice flour

1/2 cup tapioca starch

2 1/2 tablespoons sugar

1/4 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum

1 tablespoon vanilla sugar (if you don't have vanilla sugar I suggest adding 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the wet ingredients)

1/8 teaspoon salt

Wet ingredients

1 egg

1/4 cup oil

1/4 cup water

Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Combine wet ingredients in a separate bowl and mix; add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix well. Batter should be a thick creamy texture, (if too thick add a drop of water).

Drop batter by rounded teaspoon into hot oil (do not crowd; leave room, doughnuts will turn on their own). Once lightly browned on both sides, remove and place on paper towels to drain. Yield: Approximately 15 doughnuts.

Dust with powdered sugar or cut open and add gluten free filling of your choice.
