Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Almond Flour
  • 1/2 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1 Tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 Tsp Cinnamon
  • 1 Large Ripe Mashed Banana (1/2 Cup)
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1/2 Cup Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1/4 Cup Honey Substitute
  • 1/4 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract

For the Dark Chocolate Glaze

  • 1/2 Cup Lily's Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 2 Tbl Swerve Powdered Sweetener
  • 2 Tbl Unsweetened Almond Milk (as needed for consistency)

For the Topping

  • 1/3 Cup Chopped ALmonds
  • 1 Tsp Flaky Sea Salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and spray the donut pan with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.. In a separate bowl, mash the banana until smooth, then mix in Fat Free Plain Greek Yogurt, egg, Honey Substitute, vanilla extract, and almond milk.
  • lowly fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Spoon the batter evenly into the donut pan, filling each well about ¾ full.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the donuts are golden brown with a soft, fluffy texture. A toothpick inserted should come out clean. Allow the donuts to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Make the Dark Chocolate Glaze

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt dark chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Whisk in powdered sweetener and almond milk until the glaze is silky and pourable.

Assemble Donuts

  • Dip each donut into the dark chocolate glaze, allowing excess to drip off. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts and a pinch of flaky sea salt for a gourmet touch. Arrange the donuts on a white marble cake pedestal and let the glaze fully set before serving.
  • This makes 6 servings. Each donut is 9 WW Points. Enjoy!
