Air Fryer Vegan Donut Holes made with only 3 ingredients. Very easy and quick to prepare, super fluffy, soft and delicious. These vegan donut holes (or timbits) are perfect to satisfy your sweet tooth with something really quick to prepare and super yum!
To prepare these air fryer vegan donut holes, we will need simple ingredients: all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour), baking powder and vegan yogurt.
With those ingredients we will be able to make the dough. Then, we’ll toss it in a little bit of melted margarine or vegan butter to deepen the flavor. That will also make it easier for the sugar coating to stick to the donuts.
Keep in mind the next suggestions:
- The cooking time in the air fryer is for 9-10 g balls. If you make them bigger, they will require a little more time to fully cook through.
- If the yogurt you’ll use is not sweetened, add 1-2 tablespoon brown sugar.
- If the dough is a bit sticky, don't add more flour, it's normal. But if it's sticky to the point where you can't handle it, add a little oil to your hands, rub them together, and knead until it feels more manageable.
- If you want to cook the donuts in a conventional oven, bake at 190°C (380°F) for approximately 7-8 minutes (or until lightly browned).

- ¼ cup vegan yogurt, (70 g)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon margarine or vegan butter, melted
Coating (can be just sugar)
- ¼ cup sugar
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (355°F).

- Place the dough balls in the air fryer, leaving a little space between them, and cook for 5 ½ minutes. They should look slightly golden.
- Toss the balls to the bowl with the remaining margarine (if there is no more margarine left in the bowl, add ½ to 1 tablespoon more), and shake again until fully coated.
- Finally, transfer the balls to a bowl with sugar (it can be just sugar or sugar mixed with cinnamon), and give it a shake to make the sugar stick to the donut holes.
- Serve right away.

I'm confused. 70g of flour AND just 1/4c (70g) of yogurt ??? How many cups is 70g of flour?
Annie says
Yup, you're right, it's 70 g flour & 70 g yogurt. 70 g flour is around 9 tbsp or 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp 😉
Angel Clark says
Can I put them in the oven? If so what temp and for how long?
Annie says
Hi Angel! Yes! Go for 180ºC (355ºF) and around 12-15 minutes (keep an eye on them! It could be slightly less or more time depending on your oven).
