Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 2 large Egg whites
• 0.5 cup Raw honey
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Almond milk (unsweetened)
• 0 Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly spray a donut pan with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy. Add the honey, applesauce, vanilla extract, and almond milk, stirring until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and gently mix until a smooth batter forms.

Step 5

Transfer the batter into a piping bag or a zip-top bag with a corner cut off. Pipe the batter evenly into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts are lightly golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Optionally, dust with a sprinkle of cinnamon or drizzle lightly with a glaze of your choice before serving. Enjoy your guilt-free treats!
