Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup (60g) unsweetened shredded coconut
  • ¾ cup (180ml) coconut milk (full-fat)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Sweet Glaze:
  • 1 ½ cups (180g) powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons (45ml) coconut milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your donut pan with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until evenly mixed.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, coconut milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently fold using a spatula until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the shredded coconut gently through the batter.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared donut cavities, filling about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 12–15 minutes until tops are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Remove from oven and let donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar, coconut milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust thickness as needed.
  10. Dip the top of each cooled donut into the glaze, letting excess drip off. Place back on the wire rack to let glaze set for at least 20 minutes before serving.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep donuts fluffy. Use room temperature eggs and coconut milk for best results. Grease pans well to prevent sticking. Watch baking time closely to avoid dryness. Let donuts cool completely before glazing to prevent glaze from sliding off. Adjust glaze thickness by adding powdered sugar or coconut milk as needed.
