Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup + 2 tablespoons chickpea flour
  • ⅓ cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ⅛ teaspoon baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon dried lavender
  • zest of ½ lemon
  • ½ tablespoon poppy seeds

Wet Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup full-fat coconut milk
  • ⅓ cup water
  • 2 tablespoon melted coconut oil
  • ½ teaspoon apple cider vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Frosting

  • 2 tablespoons coconut butter
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon dried lavender

Topping

  • Coconut flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  2. Grease one donut pan for 6 donuts with a little coconut oil and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, mix the dry ingredients together and set aside.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients until well combined. Add the wet ingredients to the dry.
