Deliciously fluffy cinnamon sugar donuts made with whole wheat pastry flour and topped with a sweet glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons coconut sugar
- 1 teaspoon unsweetened almond milk (or preferred milk)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 to 2 teaspoons unsweetened almond milk (or preferred milk)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pastry flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, egg, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until fully incorporated.
- Spoon the donut batter into the donut pan using a spoon or piping bag. Gently shake the pan back and forth to level the batter evenly.
- In a small bowl, melt 1 tablespoon butter and stir in the cinnamon, coconut sugar, and milk until smooth.
- Use a spoon to drizzle the cinnamon topping over the unbaked donuts in the pan, spreading it evenly with the back of the spoon.
- Bake the donuts for 15-18 minutes or until lightly browned and firm.
- Remove from the oven and let the donuts cool in the pan for 3-5 minutes before gently transferring to a cooling rack. Ensure the donuts are cool before glazing.
- To make the glaze, add powdered sugar to a bowl with salt. Stir together and add almond milk 1 teaspoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
- Use a spoon to drizzle the glaze over the donuts, or use a piping bag for more precision. Enjoy!
Notes
- Ensure the donuts are completely cool before glazing for the best results.
- These donuts can also be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
