Homemade donuts are always so delicious, especially when they are packed with a ton of strawberry flavor – which happens to be one of my favorite fruits. This recipe is always a winner when I make it for anyone, and the gluten free option is just as good as the regular – and everyone that is gluten free knows how big of a win that is! I just know you are going to love these donuts just as much as I do, and they are super easy to make without any deep frying.

Instructions To Make Strawberry Donuts

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and spray a 12 silicone donut pan with non stick spray and set aside.
After mincing 1 cup of fresh (or thawed) strawberries, place them on a paper towel and pat to remove any excess moisture. Then place them in a small bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of flour. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together your 2 cups of flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and set aside.
Then in a large bowl, whisk together your melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until combined.
Add your bowl of dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and whisk until combined.
Fold the flour coated strawberries into your batter.
Fill your donut pan about 3/4 full with your donut batter. Bake in your preheated oven for 10 – 12 minutes. Allow to cool in the donut pan for at least 8 minutes and then carefully transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completley.
Prepare your glaze by mixing all of your ingredients together, adding 1 tbsp of milk at a time until you have your desired consistency.
Dip the tops of your cooled donuts into your glaze, and place donut back on your cooling rack to allow the icing to set. Once set, enjoy!
