I can't get enough of these Baked Strawberry and Cream Donuts that are gluten free, dairy free, and refined sugar free. A gluten free baked donut is topped with strawberry glaze and a dairy free cream drizzle for the ultimate spring or summer treat!
It's so hard finding safe gluten-free donuts out in the world. Even if the dough is gluten free, most places use the same fryer for their gluten and non-gluten products which makes them unsafe for those sensitive to cross-contact. That's why I love making lots of different donut varieties at home, like my Gluten Free Cinnamon Sugar Donuts or Entenmann's Copycat Protein Donuts. I had to add to the repertoire with these strawberry glazed donuts. Let me know what other donut flavors you'd love to see!
Making homemade donuts is actually super easy and fun. These baked donuts taste lighter than cake donuts, but a little denser than fried donuts. They are a soft donut that would be a perfect treat to make for Mother's Day and a fantastic addition to any brunch plans.
I think it would be so fun to open a gluten free donut and dairy free ice cream shop. I mean, how delicious to get allergy friendly donuts and ice cream in one spot? What about donut ice cream sandwiches?! Would you come to my store?
Why You'll Love These Gluten Free Strawberry Donuts
- The best part about these donuts is that they are gluten free, dairy free, and refined sugar free!
- These are baked strawberry donuts, so they're easy to make with no hot oil frying involved. There is also no yeast, so we don't have to worry about waiting for the dough rise or even a second rise.
- They're just sweet enough without being overpowering.
- We use freeze-dried strawberries, so you can make these any time of year even if fresh strawberries aren't in season. You get that real strawberry flavor without any fake flavoring added.
- Although you can use stand mixer, you can easily make these donuts with a hand mixer. You'll just need a large bowl, medium bowl, and then a small bowl for the glaze.
Strawberry and Cream Donut Ingredients
- 1:1 gluten free flour: these gluten free baked donuts are made with a mix of flours for the best texture and flavor, including a gluten free flour blend.
- Tigernut flour: I love using tigernut flour because it adds sweetness without added sugar, this way we can cut back on the sweetener in the recipe. You can also use almond flour if you tolerate nuts.
- Olive oil: the main fat in this donut recipe.
- Maple syrup: the unrefined sweetener we are using in this recipe!
- Yogurt: I use a plant-based coconut yogurt to keep this recipe dairy free. Yogurt is used in all three components of these strawberry baked donuts. If you tolerate dairy, use Greek yogurt for a protein boost!
- Egg: adds fat and fluff to our strawberry cream donuts.
- Confectioners sugar: this is for the strawberry glaze. You can make a homemade, refined sugar free variety with coconut sugar, like in this recipe.
- Freeze dried strawberries: we're using freeze dried strawberries in the glaze, instead of a strawberry jam or strawberry puree, for the best consistency and for ease. You can find freeze dried strawberries at most local grocery stores.
- Milk: I use a plant-based milk, like coconut or oat milk. Any milk will do!
- Coconut oil: for the cream glaze which gets drizzled over the fresh strawberry glaze.
- Salt, Baking powder, and vanilla extract
Substitutions and Variations
- Fruit: if you aren't a strawberry fan or want variation, try using another freeze dried fruit like raspberries or mango!
- Garnishes: amp up your gluten free donuts with garnishes like fresh sliced strawberries, sprinkles, or coconut flakes.
- Olive oil: I think another fat should work fine, like melted coconut oil or butter. Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature.
- Sweat cream: you could always use a white chocolate glaze if you prefer! Just melted some white chocolate with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil and drizzle it on top of the donuts.
- I have not tested any other variations or different flour combinations.
Baked Donut Tips for Best Results
- Make sure to oil your pan well, even if it's nonstick! We don't want stuck donuts.
- Use a piping bag or ziplock bag with the tip cut off to pipe the dough into your doughnut pan. It's so much easier this way!
- Fill your pan to the top with the donut batter for big, fluffy donuts.
- Bake until the tops of each donut are almost golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Don't over-bake!
How to Store Gluten Free Strawberry Donuts
Since the glaze has yogurt in it, store these donuts in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Donuts are, of course, always best fresh within the first 2 days, but these keep pretty well for up to 5!
Can I Make These Donuts Vegan?
These baked donuts are already dairy free, but I have not tested an egg-free version. If you try making a vegan strawberry cream donut, leave a comment and let us know how it went.

Equipment
Ingredients
Donuts
- ¾ cup + 2 Tbsp 1:1 gluten free flour
- ½ cup tigernut flour or almond flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ cup olive oil*
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup yogurt of choice I use coconut yogurt
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Strawberry Glaze
- ¼ cup powdered sugar** sifted
- 1-2 tablespoon crushed freeze dried strawberries***
- 1-2 tablespoon yogurt of choice I use coconut
- 1-2 teaspoon milk of choice
Cream Drizzle
- 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
- 2 tablespoon yogurt of choice
Instructions
Donuts
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Sift together the flours and then whisk in the salt and baking powder.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the oil, maple syrup, yogurt, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Add the dry to the wet and stir to combine.
- Grease a donut pan then pipe the batter into the pan. You will get 8-10 donuts (so you may have to bake in batches if you only have one pan, or you can make donut holes with the remaining batter).
- Bake the donuts in a preheated oven for 14-16 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan before flipping the donuts out onto a cooling rack.
Strawberry Glaze
- Once donuts are fully cooled, mix together the powdered sugar and crushed strawberry powder in a wide bowl.
- Add the yogurt and mix to combine then add milk 1 teaspoon at a time. You want to an achieve a glaze that will stick to the donuts, but isn't too runny. It should be slightly runnier than yogurt.
- Dip the donuts into the glaze then place them back on a wire rack to set. Pop them back in the fridge while you make the cream.
Cream Drizzle
- Stir together the melted coconut oil and yogurt until smooth. Add to a piping back or a small ziplock with the tip cut off.
- Drizzle the glaze over the donuts then pop them back in the fridge to set. Or eat immediately!
