About the recipe
I love baking, especially eggless baking. This eggless pineapple cake and these vegan oreo cupcakes are my absolute favorite.
So here I have another eggless sweet treat recipe that my kids love. The best part of this donut recipe is there is no deep frying. All you need is a donut pan and you will have soft and delicious eggless doughnuts in no time.
This baked chocolate chip donut recipe takes less than 30 minutes to make and that includes prep and baking time. I used a basic vanilla donut recipe and made it eggless by using egg replacer powder.
Chocolate chips and chocolate glaze add a nice touch to this simple egg free donut recipe. But if you not a fan of chocolate (wait, what??), you can dip the baked donuts in cinnamon-sugar or vanilla sugar instead.

Here is how to make to make these delicious egg free donuts recipe:
Make Eggless Baked Chocolate Chip Donuts
Preheat the oven to 425°F. You can lightly grease a 12-cavity or 2 6-cavity donut pans with cooking spray. If using nonstick pan, then skip the spray for a softer crust.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk butter, oil and both the sugars until well combined. Stir in the egg replacer mixture. Mix well. Next add baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix well.
Mix well. Next add baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix well. Add flour and milk alternately to the bowl and mix until combined. Finally stir in the chocolate chips.
Divide the batter evenly between in the prepared pans. You can transfer the batter into a ziploc or piping bag to make the process easy. Or you can also use a spoon to place batter in the pan.
Bake for 10~12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the donut comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Make Chocolate Glaze
Combine chocolate chips and coconut milk in a microwave safe bowl or a double boiler. Cook till the chocolate chips melt and become smooth.
Dip the completely donuts in the chocolate and place on the wire rack until the chocolate sets.
Expert Tips
- You can substitute some of the all purpose flour with whole-wheat pastry flour. I use up to ⅔ cup of ww pastry flour without comprising the texture of these eggless doughnuts.
- Substitute light or brown sugar with coconut sugar.
- Use 2 large eggs instead of egg replacer.
- Instead of dipping in chocolate glaze, you can dip the donuts in cinnamon-sugar or vanilla sugar.
- To convert the recipe to vegan chocolate donuts, then substitute butter with coconut oil or unsalted butter and milk with non-dairy milk.
- Eggless donuts are best served the same day. But if you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
