Carnival chocolate vegan doughnuts
The carnival is here again! And we all know very well what that means. Carnival doughnuts!
Why give up carnival goodies if you can make a completely healthy and vegan version of the traditional dessert. Carnival is so easy to conjure up – with chocolate vegan doughnuts.
All the ingredients just need to be thoroughly mixed together and they are ready to bake.
Vegan American doughnuts are perfect to enjoy with a nice cup of tea or coffee, for breakfast or dessert. You can decorate them with different toppings, in any colour and sprinkle with your favourite ingredients. You can even add chocolate pieces or fresh fruit into the dough. The possibilities are endless. The only special tool you will need is an American doughnut pan. We strongly recommend that you get at least one. If you don’t have it and want to make a similar shape right now, try using a muffin pan. No worries. They will be just as delicious.
