How to make a vegan buttermilk? There are a few ways to make vegan buttermilk, and the best method will depend on what ingredients you have on hand. One simple way is to mix together 1 cup of non-dairy milk and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until it thickens and curdles.

Can I bake donuts in a muffin tin? If you want to make baked doughnuts but don't have a pan, then all you need is a muffin tin and some aluminum foil. With these two items, you can create your own makeshift doughnut pan. How long to leave muffins in pan after baking? Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for no more than five minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack. STEP TWO: Line an airtight storage container with paper towels. The paper towels will absorb any moisture emitted by the muffins as they age. Is donut batter the same as cake batter? Yeast doughnuts are, as the name implies, made with dough leavened with yeast (think brioche), while cake doughnuts are traditionally made from a type of cake batter that uses a chemical leavener (i.e., baking powder or baking soda).
