Let's Get Started
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a donut pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sweet rice flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Spoon the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the donuts are set and lightly golden.
- While the donuts are baking, make the glaze by whisking together the confectioners' sugar and enough water to reach a pourable consistency.
- Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm donuts and let set before serving.
