Vampire Vanilla Vegan Donuts

It is no secret love donuts. I also love love love Halloween! So, I without a doubt needed to create a spooky Halloween donut.

This past spring I saw a very cute bunny donut and it made me think - what spooky face can I do? I brainstormed about doing a spooky chocolate one to look like a spider, and I still may, but I did not really want to do a chocolate donut due to the million other chocolate treats I make for Halloween.

Then it hit me - I need to do a vampire donut! Who does not love a vampire in the Halloween? So, I bought some cheap vampire fangs from Target, some googly eyes, and some red and black icing. Which, if you need to learn how to make fake blood - check this recipe out.

The ingredients for this recipe are very straight forward. If you do not have maple syrup, you can swap it for sugar. I like to make treats that are as refined sugar free as possible due to the sugary glaze I add.

This recipe also called for vanilla bean paste. This helps strengthen the vanilla taste. You can sub it out for vanilla extract though!

You will need fake plastic fangs, eyes, and red and black icing! I found all at Target.

You do need a donut tray ! I recently bought a donut baking tray from Amazon - which you can find here. This tray is phenomenal by the way! It makes it super easy to pop them right out. But do know, it makes mini donuts. About the size of a lemon. Which, for me, is perfect, but if you want bigger ones, size up. Plus side, it is pretty cheap and comes with three trays.

It is super easy to make and bake these donuts. It is a simple recipe of mix dry, mix wet, mix together and boom, you are done. Then you fill up the donut tray and bake for 10-12 minutes! Once the donuts are done baking, they cool then you dip them in the icing to frost. Pop on some googly eyes, let them dry some more and decorate with the fangs and icing! I did have to cut these fangs to make them fit. I also am not an artist when it comes to icing.

I am so delighted you did! Please leave me a review below and tag me on social media (@peachhtreee). This encourages me for the future and helps me better provide you!
