Ingredients:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tbsp baking powder
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
– 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
– Cooking spray
Instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground nutmeg. Mix until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil.
3. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while stirring. Mix until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.
4. Lightly grease the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent the donuts from sticking.
5. Spoon the batter into a piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
6. Pipe the batter into the air fryer basket, forming donut shapes. Leave some space between each donut to allow for expansion.
7. Preheat the air fryer to 350°F (180°C). Once preheated, place the basket in the air fryer and cook the donuts for 5-6 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
8. Carefully remove the donuts from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
9. If desired, you can dust the donuts with powdered sugar or drizzle them with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and almond milk.
