Don’t these vegan donuts look super delicious? I wish I could just grab one from the screen! This roundup includes vegan gluten-free donuts as well as healthier donuts with whole wheat flour and natural sweeteners.

Can vegans eat donuts?

I’ve heard this question so many times. And the answer is a big YES. While regular donuts contain eggs and milk and are, thus, not vegan, vegans can still eat donuts.

It’s super easy to make vegan donuts or even veganize your favorite donut recipes. Just use almond, soy, or oat milk instead of cow’s milk. You’ve also got many different options to replace the eggs.

What are vegan donuts made of? And how to make vegan donuts:

Like regular donuts, most vegan donuts call for all-purpose flour. However, you could also use whole wheat flour, spelt flour, or even oat flour. Instead of cow’s milk you can use a plant-based milk alternative such as almond milk or soy milk.

Instead of eggs you could use:

bananans

applesauce

flaxseeds or chia seeds

store-bought vegan egg replacers

or even aquafaba (the liquid from canned beans)

All of these egg replacements work similar to eggs in baked goods. Bananas for example add moisture while flaxseeds work really well for binding. And of course you can add a chocolate glaze on top.

Just use dark chocolate that doesn’t contain any milk ingredients. Or get a bit more creative and add other flavors to the glace like lemon, vanilla, or even fruits like strawberries or raspberries.

Where to buy vegan donuts?

In most cases, it’s still very hard to buy vegan donuts. Finding vegan donuts in normal supermarkets is unfortunately still very rare. However, keep an eye out when shopping at organic grocery stores or health food stores.

Besides, many vegan coffee shops offer vegan donuts. So just google for vegan cafés in your area and check out the reviews online. Some may have vegan donuts you can try.

Especially in big cities, more and more regular coffee shops offer vegan baked goods as well. Yaay! Peta posted an article about the best vegan doughnut places in the U.S., which could be helpful as well.

Or check the Happy Cow app, which offers lists of vegan, vegetarian, and vegan-friendly restaurants worldwide. It could also help you to find vegan donuts nearby.

How healthy are vegan donuts?

I think in most cases vegan donuts are healthier than regular donuts. Mostly because many vegan donut recipes call for healthier versions of sweeteners such as maple syrup or even dates.

Besides, the great majority of the donuts in this roundup is baked and not fried, which makes them much healthier. Some of the recipes also use whole wheat flour, spelt flour, or even oat-flour. If you’re allergic to gluten, you can also find many vegan gluten-free donuts in this roundup.

But always keep in mind that vegan donuts are still a sweet treat that you don’t enjoy every day. While there are some healthy vegan donut recipes out there, others are still loaded with sugar. But hey, I mean we’re talking about donuts, right? They need to be sweet!

So I guess that’s enough info on vegan donuts and most of you are ready to see all of those delicious vegan donut recipes I talked about! So let’s get the yumminess started!
