Creating Gluten-Free Baked Chocolate Donut Holes can be straightforward if you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut hole pan with non-stick spray or oil.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture. Stir until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
5. Add Chocolate Chips: If using, gently fold in the chocolate chips for added indulgence.
6. Fill the Pan: Spoon the batter into the prepared donut hole pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full. This allows space for the donut holes to rise.
7. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a donut hole comes out clean.
8. Cool: Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes in the pan before transferring the donut holes to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Dust or Decorate: Once the donut holes have cooled, you can dust them with powdered sugar or dip them in a simple chocolate glaze for an extra touch.
