Healthy Baked Vegan Cinnamon Donuts with pink glaze
I first made these healthy baked vegan cinnamon donuts in 2016. I got myself a donut pan and got addicted to making baked vegan donuts!
They are simple to make, and much healthier for you. Plus they are a bit more fun to eat than muffins!
Baked and healthy they are my new favourite afternoon treat to have with a cup of tea. I hope you will like my baked and pink vegan donuts too. I think these would be perfect for little girl’s parties and for Valentines day too.

You can easily swap the pink coconut glaze on these baked vegan donuts and instead dip them in cinnamon sugar to emphasise the vegan cinnamon donut flavour. I also like them plain and they are great for kids.
I like the coconut pink glaze but it is best to eat them the same day as you make them as the coconut milk can dry up and crack and it won’t look as nice. Best to add the glaze before serving.
For toppings you can do rose petals like I did, coconut flakes, chocolate or sprinkles.
I promised you the recipe for these scrumptious but healthy vegan cinnamon donuts so here it is.
