Ingredientes e Substituições
You only need 4 base ingredients to make this recipe. Here’s how to pick and swap them.

- Farinha Auto-Crescente – This provides the main structure for the muffins and helps them rise during baking. You can create your own by whisking all-purpose flour with baking powder – see ratio in the recipe card. For a gluten-free option, use my conversor sem glúten, Mas não se esqueça do fermento em pó.
- Leite de amêndoa – This adds moisture to the batter, creating a smooth consistency. Oat milk, soy milk, or cashew milk are also suitable.
- Azeite de oliva light – This contributes to the tenderness of the muffins. You can also use canola oil or melted plant-based butter. A little extra is needed to brush the muffins before coating.
- Açúcar não refinado – This sweetens the muffin batter. Coconut sugar, allulose, or date sugar are also good options.

Dicas de confeitaria da Carine
Let me share a few more tips for perfect donut muffins.
- Opção sem açúcar – If you are watching your sugar intake, swap the sugar in the coating for allulose, which is sugar-free and low in calories.
- Add Blueberries – Stirring 1/3 cup of blueberries into the batter creates delicious blueberry donut muffins.
- Wholemeal Flour Option – You can replace the self-rising flour with 1 cup of wholemeal flour for added fiber; remember to whisk in 2 teaspoons of baking powder as well to ensure they rise.
- Make Large Muffins – Double the recipe to bake 12 large muffins in a standard muffin pan. Increase the baking time to 25-30 minutes and prepare extra cinnamon sugar for coating.







Very easy to make and delicious! Thank you!
Muito obrigado!
Taste was great, but mine didn’t get fluffy. Just like flat muffin tops.
Did you self-rising flour as mentioned? Self-rising flour contains baking powder, it’s the reason why the muffin raise, if you swap for plain flour without adding baking powder, they will be flat indeed.
Carine, esta é a melhor receita que já experimentei!
That is so nice to hear, thank you!
These were gone in a matter of hours! Very easy and so good! Do you think I could use wheat flour instead? Even if I use half wheat/half white?
If you mean wholewheat flour, then yes, for sure half half will work. However, I wouldn’t guarantee a great texture if you go 100 % wholewheat flour. They might be dry because of the amount of fiber. Thanks for baking my recipes.
