Everyone will love these non gluten baked doughnuts – they are quick and easy to make and taste incredible!  It is a great recipe to have fun in the kitchen with the children and a sure crowd-pleaser.

The simple combination of Japanese Gluten-Free Rice Flour and tapioca flour makes the doughnuts light and flavorful and decorating them with a simple cream cheese glaze and freeze-dried strawberries takes the yumminess to another level. You may also enjoy them straight from the oven or simply drizzle the cooled doughnuts with melted chocolate. Add even more more flavor with a teaspoon of ground cinnamon in the dough and then dusting the baked doughnuts with cinnamon sugar.

Fun facts:  Each year, over 10 billion doughnuts are made in the U.S. and about 1 billion in Canada. There are two National Doughnut Days – one is celebrated on the first Friday of June and the other on November 5th.

Step 1
