• 1 Grated apple (peeled, cored)
• 0.75 cup Granular erythritol sweetener

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond milk until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.

Step 5

Fold in the grated apple and erythritol sweetener, ensuring the mixture is blended evenly.

Step 6

Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each mold about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts are firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Optional: Sprinkle additional cinnamon on top before serving for an extra burst of flavor.
