Vegan chocolate glazed donuts make a perfect start to your weekend mornings or breakfast any day of the week! Tender baked donuts are dipped in a chocolate glaze for delicious flavor and texture in every bite.
Heat oven to 350°F/180°C. Coat donut pan compartments with vegetable spray.
In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and nutmeg.
In another bowl, stir together the yogurt, melted vegan butter, and water. Stir to combine.
Pour the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture and stir to combine.
Spoon the batter into prepared donut pans. I measured approximately 4 tablespoons of batter per compartment.
Bake for 10 minutes, until the donuts are done.
For the Chocolate Glaze
In the meantime, make the chocolate glaze by combining all the ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir to coat the chocolate chips, then microwave for 30 seconds. Allow it to sit until the chocolate chips are melted. Stir until smooth and creamy. To make it thinner, add a teaspoon of vegan milk or creamer.
Dip cooled donuts in the chocolate glaze. Serve them as is or top with your favorite garnishes, such as chopped nuts or sprinkles.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Notes
Donut pans are different than muffin pans in that you can fill donut pans a little more. It will make for a more rounded finished donut.
