Step-by-Step Instructions

  3. In a separate bowl, combine almond milk, granulated sugar, melted vegan butter, apple cider vinegar, and pure vanilla extract.
  4. Gently pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with dry ingredients and fold until just combined.
  5. Scoop the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.
