Spring Break Dia Numero Tres

Yesterday I busted out my Mini Donut Pan I bought for $9.99 and made Baked Donuts from the Vegan Junk Food.

1 1/2 cups flour
1/3 cup oil
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup non-dairy milk (I used vanilla soy but you can use any kind of nut milk and flavor)
1 tsps ground flaxseeds
1 1/2 tsps baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

preheat oven to 350 degrees
combine all ingredients in a bowl until smooth.
lightly grease a donut pan or mini-muffin pan (I used both.  Using a mini-muffin made donut holes which are equally awesome)
fill each halfway with batter.
bake for 15 minutes or when a toothpick comes out clean.

while they are still warm you can roll with these...
cinnamon sugar: 1/2 cup sugar mixed with 1 tsps cinnamon
powdered sugar
chocolate glaze: in a microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 package vegan chocolate chips w/1 tbsp coconut oil in increments of 15 seconds, stirring after each until all melted. using 2 forks, dip each donut turning to coat evenly and allowing extra chocolate to drip off. place on a sheet of parchment paper and refrigerate until chocolate is firm.  alternatively while chocolate is still wet, sprinkle each donut with chopped nuts, shredded coconut or sprinkles.

Enjoy!

Spring Break Day 1

This week is going to be challenging.
It is Spring break for Celina, which means I will have a bored teenager that will find everything boring and not fun.
Although we had beautiful pool weather on Sunday, I will not have it this week. I can't rely on hours of splashing and relaxing.
With no car and not a lot of $$$. It should make for an interesting week.
Sooooo
I'm going to break out the ice cream machine and attempt to make some non-dairy ice cream trying different flavors.
The flat bread maker has not been used in a long time so I will dust that off also to make different breads.
