A wholesome twist on a bakery classic
Skip the jam and say hello to pure, creamy indulgence. These donuts are filled with our Organic Cashew & Vanilla Butter for a naturally sweet centre that tastes like vanilla custard—but is made entirely from clean, plant-based ingredients. Perfect for weekend baking, special occasions, or a quick hack using shop-bought donuts.
Ingredients (Makes 8–10 donuts)
If making from scratch:
-
250g plain or gluten-free self-raising flour
-
50g coconut sugar
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
180ml plant milk
-
2 tbsp coconut oil (melted)
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
Pinch of salt
Or shortcut version:
-
8–10 ready-made plain or empty donuts from your favourite bakery or supermarket (look for ones without filling)
For the filling:
-
Sun & Seed Organic Cashew & Vanilla Butter
Optional coating:
-
2 tbsp coconut sugar + 1 tsp cinnamon
Method
If baking your own:
-
Make the dough: In a large bowl, mix flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in plant milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until a soft dough forms.
-
Shape & bake/fry: Roll into small balls for donuts. Bake at 180°C for 12–15 minutes until golden, or shallow fry in coconut oil until lightly browned.
-
Cool slightly before filling.
If using shop-bought donuts:
-
Make a small hole in each donut using a skewer or piping nozzle.
-
Skip straight to the filling step below.
Fill & finish:
-
Spoon Cashew & Vanilla Butter into a piping bag with a small nozzle.
-
Pipe into each donut until you feel resistance.
-
Optionally, roll donuts in cinnamon sugar for extra indulgence.
-
Serve warm or at room temperature.
