FOR THE DONUTS
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
- 2 tbsp nonfat, plain Greek yogurt
- 3 tbsp almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup sprinkles
FOR THE ICING
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1-2 tsp almond milk (or milk of choice)
MAKE THE DONUTS
Preheat oven to 350F. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda.
In a separate bowl, beat together the wet ingredients: apple sauce, yogurt, egg, milk, and vanilla.
Slowly whisk the wet ingredients into the dry until just fully combined. Fold in sprinkles, reserving about a tbsp or so to sprinkle on top.
Evenly divide batter between 9 donut molds or muffin tins. Mine came out to about 3 tbsp of batter per mold.
Bake until just cooked through, when a tooth pick inserted comes out clean, about 12-15 minutes. Mine were perfectly done at 13 minutes. Try not to over bake! Let cool for about 5 minutes.
MAKE THE FROSTING
Whisk vanilla and 1/2 tsp milk into powdered sugar. Continue adding in 1/2 tsp at a time until you get the consistency you want. Less milk will create a frosting, like in the pictures above. More milk will create a glaze that you can dip the donuts in.
Frost donuts/cupcakes with a mini spatula, or drizzle icing over the top. Add reserved sprinkles to the tops before the icing sets.
