2. In a medium bowl sift together the gluten free flour, coconut flour, sugar, xantham gum, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg.
3. Slowly pour the sifted and blended dry ingredients into the stand mixer, and mix until just combined.
4. Bring a deep fryer to a temperature between 320-350°F.

6. Drain on paper towel for a moment.
7. Dust with vanilla sugar, cinnamon sugar or other toppings of your choice.
8. To make chocolate doughnuts, add 3-4 tablespoons cocopowder to dry ingredients and about 2 tablespoons water or milk to tofu.
