Ingredients
  

Donut

Deco

  • 2 Tbsp granulated sugar of choice

Instructions
 

  • Use a whisk to stir all the ingredients together until well incorporated and the batter is smooth.
  • Use a ¼ cup measuring cup or large spoon to portion the batter into a well-greased donut pan. FIll to ¾ full. ***
  • Bake in a 350F preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes (about 20-22 minutes for silicone donut pan), or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • BEFORE the donuts cool completely, dip the donuts into granulated sugar

Notes

*You can also use other flour substitutes (oat, coconut, whole wheat flour) in this recipe, as well as use more mochiko flour to increase chewiness. Be sure to refer to my Mochi Donut Experiment to read how the results differ! 
**I used dehydrated honey (honey powder) for this recipe, but coconut, date and maple sugars are less processed granulated sugars I would also recommend. Please do note that these darker sugars do make the donuts look darker. For lower carb options, you can also use sugar-free sweeteners such as monk fruit sweetener or stevia (but you’ll have to convert according to package instructions).
***I used olive oil cooking spray to grease my donut pan. If you don’t have olive oil cooking spray you can use other vegetable oil sprays or melted coconut oil.
