There’s not much that’s better than a delicious donut. Especially one that’s… healthy? Wait, what’s that? Donut? Healthy?
Of course- and it’s all thanks to this!
Now you can BAKE a donut. You get to control the ingredients in your donuts. And they’re baked, not fried so it won’t leave your tummy hurting (I have a pretty sensitive stomach and too much fat really does a number on my tummy!).
I got my donut pan on Amazon. I originally got the regular sized 6-count donut pan. Then I was browsing around Hobby Lobby one day and I noticed that they had donut pans too. So I got one of the 12-count mini donut pans. I’m having so much fun experimenting with different recipes for donuts!
First up is a blueberry glazed donut that will knock your socks off! These donuts are low fat and vegan but don’t let that fool you because they’re amazing!!

1 cup Whole Wheat pastry flour
1 T baking powder
1/2 t cinnamon
1/4 cup applesauce
1/2 cup sugar
1 t vanilla
1 cup non-dairy milk
1 cup blueberries
For the glaze:
1/2 cup confectioners sugar
1-2 T non-dairy milk (depending on the thickness that you prefer for your glaze)

Combine dry ingredients in a medium sized bowl.
In a small bowl combine wet ingredients.
Add wet to dry and stir until just combined.
Carefully fold in blueberries.
Spoon mixture into a donut pan that’s been sprayed with cooking spray.
Bake for 12-13 minutes until donuts are firm and slightly brown.
Let cool in pan for 5 minutes.
For glaze mix together the confectioners sugar and milk and dip each donut into glaze. Let donuts sit until glaze hardens. (NOTE: if you store these in an airtight container the glaze will melt so plan accordingly!)
