Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 0.75 cup skim milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt until combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat the applesauce, skim milk, egg, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Spoon the batter into a piping bag or a plastic bag with the corner cut off. Pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
Step 6
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the donuts are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Once the donuts are cool, place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Lightly dust the donuts with powdered sugar by either dredging them or gently sprinkling the sugar over them.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat powdered sugar donuts!
