    I've noticed a lot of gluten-free recipes tend to compromise on texture for flavor. How do these donuts hold up in that aspect? I'm skeptical but intrigued.

    For the gluten-free vanilla baked donuts, can I use coconut sugar instead of regular? Trying to keep things a bit healthier haha

      Coconut sugar should be fine! It has a lower glycemic index, making it a great substitute.

      Actually, coconut sugar has similar calories to regular sugar. Not much healthier but tastes great!
