Lavender's lovely floral flavor relaxes the body and mind. Whether used in baking recipes or beauty products, it has a soothing, sweet, and beautiful aroma - one of the most recognized scents in the world.
Lavender, also known as Lavandula x intermedia, is an evergreen shrub that blooms with beautiful purple flowers from the late spring to early autumn. While it originated in the Mediterranean, lavender is now cultivated in Europe and the Western United States.
This sweet herb is in vogue in French cuisine and adds a delicate floral flavor to desserts and breads. Its aromatic properties also shine when infused in oils, soaps, lotions, and creams for spa-like home beauty treatments.

Gluten-Free Lemon-Lavender Donuts (Vegan)
Lemon-Lavender Sugar
- 1/2 cup Wholesome Organic Turbinado Sugar
- 2 tsp. Frontier Co-op Organic Dried Lavender
- 3 tsp. lemon zest
Donuts
- 2 cups King Arthur Baking Company Gluten-Free Measure-for-Measure Flour
- 1 Tbsp. Bob's Red Mill Baking Powder
- 1/2 cup lemon-lavender sugar (from above)
- 1 cup Native Forest Organic Coconut Milk
- 1/3 cup Wildly Organic Refined Coconut Oil (melted)
- 1/4 cup Butternut Mountain Farm Maple Syrup
- 1 tsp. Frontier Co-op Vanilla Extract
Lemon Icing
- 2 cups Woodstock Organic Powdered Sugar
- 3 tsp. lemon zest
- 2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 2 Tbsp. Native Forest Organic Coconut Milk
- For lemon-lavender sugar, in food processor, add sugar, lemon zest and dried lavender and pulse until mixture is well combined. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease 12-welled donut pan.
- In large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and lemon-lavender sugar.
- Add coconut milk, melted coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined and smooth. (Note: Batter should have a thick, pancake-like consistency.)
- Fill each donut well about ¾ full with batter.
- Bake 15 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and let donuts cool slightly before transferring them to cooling rack.
- For icing, in medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice and coconut milk until smooth glaze forms.
- To glaze donuts, dip the cooled donuts into the lemon icing, allowing any excess to drip off. Place them back on the cooling rack and let the icing set until firm.
These donuts are best enjoyed fresh. They can be stored in an airtight container for a few days, but for best texture, store them without icing and glaze them just before serving.
