Notes
*you can use regular firm tofu, but silken tofu (make sure it's firm, too) gives you the best texture!** I like using light-colored sweeteners such as raw cane sugar in this recipe because it doesn't affect the color of the final product. Coconut, date, and maple sugars are less processed, more natural granulated sugars, but it results in a browner, darker donut so I don't recommend them here. I also like to use honey powder, since it's light in color as well as less processed (but it won’t be vegan). For the low carb option reflected in the nutrition facts, you can use sugar-free substitutes such as monk fruit sweetener or stevia powder (but be sure to convert the amount of stevia according to package directions)
