Carrot Cake Doughnuts

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan / 400°F and lightly grease the doughnut tray with a small amount of vegan margarine.
2. Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg in a mixing bowl.
3. In a separate bowl combine the aquafaba, maple syrup, margarine, sugar and vanilla extract.
4. Transfer the wet mixture to the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl, and combine. Then add the grated carrot and mix again until all the ingredients have combined.
5. Spoon the cake mixture into the doughnut moulds until each mould is roughly 2/3 full.
6. Place the doughnut tray in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
7. Remove the doughnut tray from the oven and leave to cool for 5 minutes.
8. Meanwhile, combine the icing ingredients together in a medium sized bowl until smooth. The consistency should be slightly thick so the icing sticks to the doughnuts. If your mixture is too runny, simply add some more sugar.
9. Once cooled enough to touch, remove the doughnuts from their moulds.
10. Dunk the bottom of the doughnuts (which will be the smoothest side) in the icing and gently lift it out. Use a fork to hook the doughnuts out, if you prefer.
