Baked Donut – No Butter (Healthy for Sugar Cravings)

Donut is one dessert that can be made healthy when baked. Like these chocolate glazed donut scones that are jammed… as in raspberry jam.

 

Chocolate and raspberry are a decadent pairing and can be made healthy. Raw cacao and organic raspberries are loaded with polyphenols that are anti-inflammatory good.

Chocolate pairs well with almost any flavor, and many of them are healthy like nuts, fruits, and spices.

And in our flavor choices… once upon a time, I ate my last cream filling donut (…well, that was not healthy)…

Why?… The donut showed up on my arm the next day. 😀

I don’t think I’ve had a store-bought donut since. Even though I love how cute they look and glossy glazed. And don’t get me started about the fresh bakery scent trail it leaves.

Kidding aside, I found other store-bought ways to get the sweet taste without the fried-ness in traditional donuts. …because like sugar, fried foods are addictive.

You can’t have JUST ONE and be satisfied.

…So if you eat smaller bites and healthy sweets, then there’s no guilt.. and there’s NO eat now, pay later after effect.

Those are all heathy moves.

And when there’s an emergency sugar craving 😊… (for me, that’s daily and often)… low-sugar snacks like this healthy baked donut do the trick.

Oh, and there’s no butter in this recipe, so you save on fat calories. Healthy fat foods like coconut oil (that’s minimal) is a good alternative.

And if you’re someone who likes variety, you can zhugh and flavor each baked donut with different looks and tastes.

Like rose and rosewater, pistachio, coconut and other plant-based foods. 🌹🥥🌱

They’re good healthy food substitutes. And if you’re looking for a good sweet food substitute, give this baked donut a GO!
