I've never seen a gluten-free donut mix before. Do they exist?
I have seen a recipe that uses a pancake mix, but it seems
like a mix designed especially for donuts might taste better.
I guess in general I'm just looking for a tasty gluten-free donut,
and I assume that making them at home would give a
better result than store-bought ones.

What's the best gluten-free donut that anyone out there has ever tried?

Does anyone have any experience to share on this topic?

Thanks,
Zeitgeist

I'm still waiting for a good one. They all seem like doorstops to me.

I don't know of a good donut mix but I can tell you that Celiac Specialities in MIchigan makes a excellent glazed donut. I order quite often and they also have a good mac & cheese plus wonderful cream puffs ( which I heard they are going to stop making at the end of this month)

Now, if anyone could find out where to buy nut rolls, I'd be in heeaven.............

For a totally awesome donut, order the ones from Kinnikinnick ~ they taste like the real thing and are heaven!!! Here is their web site: http://www.kinnikinnick.com/ The chocolate glazed are my favorite, but they are all yummy!!

Yes. Order from kinnikinnick. The donuts are not light and airy. They're cake like. I add chocolate something or other from Pillsbury to make them even more delicious.

Celiac Specialties in Mi. is the best doughnut by far. You can order on-line.

I like the kinnikinnick too, but I don't think they're as light as regular donuts. I find them pretty dense, but that makes them filling! I've only had the vanilla and choco dipped ones, but I think they make a maple one. Has anyone tried that? I love maple flavored stuff.

I assume that if you really wanted to make your own donuts, you could use a regular cake mix, right? Then I guess you'd just shape it and fry it like a regular donut? Sorry, I'm no baker, I don't really know how donuts are made haha....

Yes ~ I've had the maple ones. They are really good as well. Hey, what can I say ... I love donuts!!

thanks gfinnebraska - I trust your recommendation and will try the maple ones soon!

You're welcome, Lauren! BUT, I don't know if I am doing you a favor... I find those donuts VERY addicting!!
I am "letting" myself order some for a special Christmas treat, but then it is back on the straight and narrow! Hahaha!!
