Baked Apple Donuts

By GuidingVegan

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• pinch of salt
• 1 flax egg
• 1 6 oz container of kite hill plain yogurt
• 1 tablespoon canola oil
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 apple (diced small)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• powdered sugar for dusting

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Toss apples in cinnamon and sugar and set aside. In a large bowl whisk together all the dry ingredients. In another bowl stir together oil, lemon juice, syrup, flax egg and yogurt. Make a hole in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into the hole. Gently fold everything together until combined. Sprinkle apples into a greased donut pan and divide batter evenly in the pan. (I used the cooking spray that has flour in it but I think any kind would work.) The batter will be pretty thick and airy. We found it was easier to scoop it into the donut pan with our hands. Before baking be sure to clean off any stray dough around the circle so there’s a hole in the middle of the donut. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool for a few moments and then flip over onto a cooling rack while still warm. Dust with powdered sugar and serve immediately! Makes 6 donuts.
