Sweet Cinnamon Donuts
Donut craving? Here is a sprouted whole-grain at-home option offering 5 grams of protein in each donut!
DONUT INGREDIENTS
DRY
1 cup organic sprouted spelt flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/8 tsp pink salt
1 tsp baking powder (aluminum-free)
WET
1 organic large egg
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tbsp MCT oil or melted coconut oil
1/4 milk (I use organic whole milk)
TOPPING INGREDIENTS
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tbsp coconut sugar (maple sugar also works well)
1-2 tbsp MCT oil
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 425°.
Place silicone donut pan on a baking sheet. Set aside for later use. If using a metal pan, grease with MCT or coconut oil.
In a bowl, mix all the topping ingredients together EXCEPT the MCT oil. Set aside for later use.
In a medium bowl, mix all dry donut ingredients together.
Make a well in the centre of the dry mix bowl, add the wet donut ingredients, whisk well. Then start bending the dry & wet together.
Once mix smooth, spoon mix into the donut pan cavities evenly.
Place donut pan in the oven & bake for 7-9 mins. A toothpick will come out clean.
Remove donuts from the oven & let cool. Once cool pop out of the tray.
Using a basting brush, coat donuts with the topping MCT oil. Only use enough to coat donuts for the cinnamon to stick.
Once the donut is coated, dip in the topping cinnamon mix (or sprinkle on). I do one donut at a time, brush with oil then coat right away with the cinnamon mix.
Once coated place donuts on a rack.
Enjoy! Store in a container for a few days if they last!
