Baked Chocolate Glazed Donut - Healthy Donut Alternative
A healthier donut baked with gluten-free flour with a shiny chocolate glaze top and healthy toppings.
Servings 4 donuts
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut flour (or gluten-free flour)
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 2 tsp coconut oil (or neutral oil)
- 1 tsp yeast
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup milk of choice
- pistachio bits and shredded coconut (zhugh)
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate, melted (zhugh)
- low-sugar raspberry jam (optional)
Instructions
- Combine donut cake ingredients by hand. Use enough milk to get the consistency closest to a cake batter (not too liquid and not too dense). Grease your pan with coconut oil and pour batter into the pan. Bake on 350°F/180°C until top looks baked and a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool. Cut out with round cookie cutter (easier to do before completely cooled).
- After cooled, to add (oozing) raspberry jam to centers, poke a food skewer through the middle side of the donut to make a hollow tunnel in the donut. Use a food syringe or a squeezable jam bottle to insert jam into the tunnel.
- Make melted chocolate glaze and dip donut top side in glaze.
- Zhugh with coconuts and pistachio bits while glaze is still wet.
- Keep the donuts out in a cool spot for 2 days or for longer lasting, refrigerate in a covered container.
