¼ cup organic cane sugar, divided

Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
3 tbsp vegan butter, melted and cooled
1 tsp vanilla extract

For frying

4 cups neutral oil, for frying (such as canola oil or vegetable oil)

For the glaze

2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
3–4 tbsp plant-based milk
½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1
Combine the warmed plant-based milk, yeast, and 1 tsp of the sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer. Stir briefly and let stand for 5–8 minutes, until foamy and fragrant.
2
Add the remaining sugar, flour, salt, melted vegan butter, and vanilla extract to the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed with the dough hook until the flour is incorporated, then increase to medium speed and knead for 6–8 minutes, until the dough is smooth, slightly tacky, and pulls cleanly away from the sides of the bowl.
