Ingredients

  • FOR THE DOUGHNUTS:
  • 1-1/2 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1-1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoons Salt
  • 1/2 cups Light Coconut Milk
  • 3 Tablespoons Light Sour Cream
  • 6 Tablespoons Butter
  • 1/2 cups Sugar
  • 1 whole Egg
  • 1 whole Limes, Zested
  • 1 Tablespoon Poppy Seeds
  • FOR THE ICING:
  • 1 whole Lime, Zested
  • 2 whole Limes, Juiced
  • 2 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1/4 cups Milk

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray doughnut pans with cooking spray, set aside.
  2. 2
    In a small bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together, and set aside. In a separate small bowl, whisk together milk and sour cream, and set that bowl aside.
  3. 3
    In the bowl of a stand mixer, add in the butter and sugar; beat on medium for 2 minutes to until mixture is pale in color and fluffy. Add in the egg, lime zest, and poppy seeds, and beat for 1 minute to combine. Add in 1/3 of the flour, then half the milk, 1/3 flour, the rest of the milk, and then the rest of the flour. Beat after each addition, making sure not to overmix though!
  4. 4
    Spoon batter into donut pans, filling about 3/4 full. Bake for 11-13 minutes or until doughnuts are a light golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool in pans for a few minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  5. 5
    For the icing:
  6. 6
    Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl, whisking until smooth. You want the glaze to be a little thick so that it stays on the doughnuts, but if it's too think just add a little more milk. Dunk the tops of the doughnuts in the glaze and return to the cooling rack to let the glaze dry. Dunk the doughnuts a second time to form a thick glaze coating. Then scarf!
