These donuts are warm, sweet, tasty, and made with just the right amount of spice!
Ingredients
Donut Batter
- 1 ½ cups rolled oats ground
- ½ cup almond flour
- ⅓ cup granulated all purpose sweetener
- 1 Tbsp Baking powder
- ½ Tbsp Cinnamon
- ¼ tsp Salt
- ⅔ cup vanilla greek yogurt
- ¼ cup cooking oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp Almond extract
- Cooking oil spray
Cinnamon Mixture
- 2 tsp Cinnamon
- ½ cup granulated all purpose sweetener
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 *F. Thoroughly grease your preferred donut pan. Set the pan aside.
- Add your oats and almond flour to a blender and blend for 30 seconds until a powder has formed. Add this mixture to a large bowl along with the all purpose granulated sweetener, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set this bowl aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, oil, egg, and almond extract. Mix this together until a uniform mixture has formed. Next, add this wet mixture to the dry mixture and gently start mixing using a rubber spatula until fully combined.
- Transfer donut batter to a large plastic bag or a piping bag. Carefully cut a corner of the bag odd, and pipe the batter into your donut wells. This method makes it much easier to fill the donut wells in your pan.
- Bake donuts in a preheated oven for about 12 minutes or until they have turned golden brown. Then, remove the donuts from the oven.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining granulated sweetener and cinnamon and mix to combine.
- Once the donuts have cooled, spray the top of your donuts with your favorite cooking oil spray
- Gently dip the sprayed top of the donuts in the cinnamon mixture to coat the donuts. Enjoy!
Notes
The brands you use and product types chosen can change the nutritional information presented. To obtain the most accurate nutritional information, you should calculate the nutritional information with the actual ingredients you use. I have partnered with and worked with Truvia to create many recipes over the years, and prefer to use their Truvia Sweet Complete sweetener for baking. The nutrition information for this recipe was calculated using that sweetener.
