Description
A healthy alternative to the heavy and fried doughnut variety.
Ingredients
- FOR THE DONUTS:
- ½ cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
- ½ cups Cake Flour
- 1-½ teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 dash Nutmeg
- ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- ¼ cups Cane Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Canola Oil
- ¼ cups Milk
- 1 Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 4 Tablespoons Pumpkin
- FOR THE GLAZE:
- 4 Tablespoons Powdered Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Milk
- 1 Tablespoon Maple Syrup
Preparation
Preheat oven to 235 F.
In a small bowl, sift together whole wheat flour, cake flour, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, beat the rest of the ingredients together with a hand mixer. Mix until smooth.
Add the dry ingredients into the wet, and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Be sure not to overmix!
Then divide the batter evenly between the six cavities of a standard doughnut pan and bake for 8-10 minutes.
While the doughnuts are baking, combine the powdered sugar, milk and maple syrup and stir to make the glaze. Once the doughnuts are cool, dip each one into the glaze.
Serve and enjoy!
