1 ½ tsp yeast
1 tsp sugar
2 cups warm water
3 cups powdered milk
1 ½ tsp xanthan gum
1 tsp salt
⅓ cup sugar
⅔ cup butter, melted
1 cup mashed potatoes
2 eggs
8 cups hot oil
Glaze
4 cups powdered sugar
1 cup butter
2 tsp vanilla
6 tbsp hot water do not add water for thick glaze
1In a large mixing bowl, combine yeast, 1 tsp. sugar, and warm water. Let it sit until the yeast is bubbly.
2Slowly add powdered milk. Add xanthan gum, salt, 1/3 c. sugar, melted butter, mashed potatoes, and eggs.
3Mix just until blended. Add Eating Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour 1 cup at a time, stirring after each cup.
4On a clean counter, spread an extra 1/4 c gluten-free flour. With clean hands, spread out dough. Cut out circles using a mason jar lid or cookie cutter.
Use your finger to make the inside hole (by inserting your finger in the center of the doughnut then gently spinning the doughnut around on the counter), or use a smaller cookie cutter to cut the middle doughnut hole.
5Place doughnuts on a greased cookie sheet. Let rise for 20 minutes. While they are rising, mix up glaze by beating butter and powdered sugar until creamy.
Add vanilla, then slowly stir in hot water.
6Fry doughnuts in hot oil about 375°, turning once. Be careful not to cook them too long.
7Cool for 1-2 minutes on a paper towel. While they are still warm, dip them into the glaze on both sides.
8Let dry completely on a wire rack.
9Makes about 3 dozen doughnuts.
