Rachel’s creative cooking Mini Gluten Free Doughnuts It’s now that time of year where all we (I, especially) want to do is eat sweet treats in our jumpers in front of the TV and so I wanted to share with you my doughnut recipe. These doughnuts are super easy to make and you can be eating them within half an hour, warm from the oven, dipping them in melted chocolate... which actually sounds like a really good idea right now! For the glaze: 180g icing sugar 1-2 tbsp milk Optional: sprinkles chocolate Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a 6 hole doughnut tray with oil. 150g gluten free/ rice flour 30g glutinous rice flour ¼ tsp bicarbonate of soda ¼ tsp cream of tartar 1½ tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt 60g caster sugar 120g unsalted butter 1 tsp vanilla extract 2 eggs, separated 230ml milk oil, for greasing [email protected] www.rachelscreativecooking.co.uk 48 | hiyabucks.com In a saucepan, gently warm the milk (don’t boil), remove from the heat and add in the butter to allow it to melt. Stir in the vanilla and egg yolks. Whisk the egg whites up to soft peaks (until you can lift the whisk out and the whites make peaks that fall over). Add all of the dry ingredients to a large mixing bowl and make a well in the centre. Pour the liquid from the saucepan into the centre of the well and stir into the flour. Fold in the egg whites using a spatula until the batter is smooth with no lumps of egg white. 07429 182343
