A healthy donut? Yep! You better believe it and it’s absolutely delicious. In fact, I think it’s even better than it’s fried version!
You’ll only need a non-stick donut pan and you’re all set to go! No fryer and virtually no oil necessary.
This recipe is very simple and it takes just a few minutes to make. Cooking time is just about 10 minutes. Basically, it’s quicker than driving yourself to the closest donut shop! ?
You can decide to coat the top completely with the glaze or just to drizzle a bit on top. Or, you can forgo the glaze altogether for an even healthier version. It’s all good!?

- Transfer the mixture into a piping bag (or a big ziploc) and pipe it into your previously well-oiled donut pan, to approximately 3/4 of the edge. 5 Bake for about 10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Glaze: Mix all the ingredients together with a whip or a fork. Dip the donuts in the glaze or simply drizzle on top. Sprinkle a bit of confectionner’s sugar if desired.
