How To Make: Donut Ice Cream Sandwich (Vegan)

If you have stale or old vegan donuts, you can absolutely use them for this recipe because we’re going to grill the donuts! If you don’t have a BBQ grill, you can use an oven for 5-mins at 350F.

When grilling donuts, it caramelizes the sugar, creating this dark, smoky flavor that creates a crispy layer on the outside with a soft, pillowy texture inside. What’s better to add to hot donuts… a scoop of vegan ice cream to cool it down! then topped it off with maple syrup or a bourbon-maple syrup mix. This recipe is probably one of the best guilty pleasures I have made yet

INGREDIENTS:

• Vegan Donuts (glazed or sugared donuts)
• Vegan Ice Cream
• Maple Syrup
• Bourbon (optional)

KITCHEN EQUIPMENT:

• BBQ Grill
• Saucepan
• Ice cream scooper

PRO TIPS:

• You can omit the bourbon to make it non-alcoholic and use just maple syrup instead.
• If you don’t have a BBQ grill, you can cook it in the oven for 5-mins at 350F.
• Recommended to put ice cream right after the donuts are out of the grill while it’s still hot.
