Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease the mini muffin pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter and maple syrup until combined. Add yogurt, milk, and vanilla, then mix until smooth. Lastly, add eggs and whisk until creamy.
  3. Add gluten-free flour, baking soda, salt, and sifted cocoa powder to the wet ingredients. Mix gently until you have a smooth batter.
  4. Fill each muffin cavity with batter about three-quarters full.
  5. Bake for 9-11 minutes until tops are spongy, and a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Add vanilla if desired. Adjust milk for thickness.
  8. Dip each cooled donut hole into the glaze and allow excess to drip off before placing back on the rack.
