- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini donut pan with cooking spray or oil.

- In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared mini donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the donuts are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the donuts are cooling, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Dip the cooled donuts into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off, and sprinkle with optional sprinkles if desired.
- Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving.
Notes

- For a chocolate version, substitute 2 tablespoons of the sweet rice flour with cocoa powder.
- For a fruity twist, add 1/4 cup of mashed banana or pureed strawberries to the batter before mixing.
