The world's easiest healthy donuts

The world's easiest healthy donuts

Who doesn't love donuts? It's crazy how this toric shape can generate smiles. In my family, we fried donuts from generation to generation. For New Year's Day, my maternal grandmother prepared mountains of it for the pleasure of young and old. It must be said that all together, we were nearly a hundred.

Today, I still love donuts...but I was craving an easier, healthier version that would also make a great lunch for us. I treated myself to a donut pan and have been having fun ever since. Every time I make them, the dozen disappear in no time. Whether you cook them with pastry flour, whole wheat flour for more fiber or with your favorite gluten-free mix, they are moist and succulent.

At home, we eat them for dessert, snacks and, yes, even for lunch. Dipping my donut in my coffee is a real pleasure. Here, I present to you my basic recipe.

If you want, once they're cooked, you can dip them in a mixture of powdered sugar and cinnamon...but they won't be without added refined sugar. (But we won't tell because they are still a healthy choice.)

Good fun!
