These strawberry doughnuts are a delicious treat for any event. They are warm and soft, and they have a delicious strawberry jam inside. Great for dessert or breakfast!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup almond milk or any plant-based milk
• 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup strawberry jam or fresh mashed strawberries
• Oil for frying

Instructions:

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt

Add almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients

Mix until a smooth dough forms

Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/2 inch thickness

Using a cookie cutter or a glass, cut out doughnut shapes and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper

Remember to cut out smaller holes in the center for the doughnuts

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350F 180C

Carefully place doughnuts into the hot oil, frying each side for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown

Once fried, remove doughnuts from oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil

Allow the doughnuts to cool slightly

Fill a piping bag fitted with a small round tip with strawberry jam or mashed strawberries

Insert the tip into each doughnut and squeeze a generous amount of filling inside

Serve warm and enjoy!
