baked apple cinnamon donuts

Ingredients

– 1/2 nudie cloudy apple juice
– 1/4 cup neutral oil
– 1/4 cup maple syryp
– 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1 cup plain flour
– 1 tsp baking powder
– 1 tsp ground cinnamon
– 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
– 1/4 tsp sea salt

To coat

– 2 tbsp sugar-free granulated sweetener
– 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Bake: 12 minutes
Serves 6

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly spray a 6-hole donut pan and set aside.

2. In a large bowl, whisk together the apple juice, oil, maple syrup, vinegar and vanilla. Add in the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Mix until smooth.

3. Evenly spoon or pipe the mixture into the donut pan. Give the pan a good shake and tap to even out the batter before placing in the oven.

4. Bake for 12 minutes or until cooked through (test with a skewer). Cool at room temperature for 10 minutes before carefully removing from the pan (if you gently twist them they pop up easily).

5. In the meantime add the white sugar and cinnamon into a small bowl and mix well. While the donuts are still slightly warm, coat well in the cinnamon sugar mixture.

6. Enjoy immediately or cool completely before storing in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to 1 week.
