]]> Most people can’t imagine eating their donuts without sugar glaze, but this ingredient earned them their status as an unhealthy treat. Luckily, you can put a twist on them and make them super-sweet without using any refined sugar because there are many healthier alternatives on the market.

Natural Alternatives

If ditching sugar altogether isn’t an option for you, you can always try replacing it with healthier alternatives. Stevia and Splenda are the first ones that come to mind, but you can also use all sorts of natural sweeteners, from maple syrup to honey, as long as you don’t go overboard.

Just Add Fruits

Whenever you’re trying to make your desserts naturally sweet, fruits will be there to help you on your mission. They can make your donuts healthy by upping their fiber content, in addition to making them super-delicious.

Tasty Spreads

In addition to fruits, you can also use all sorts of different spreads as a topping. Making your own is the best possible option, but you should carefully check the labels if you’re using store-bought varieties so they wouldn’t pack more unhealthy ingredients than sugar glaze.

]]> Powered jelly donuts, known as Sufganiyot in Hebrew, are a traditional dessert shared over the Jewish festival of Hanukkah. Fluffy on the outside with a delicious, sweet center, this recipe will teach you how to make these tasty treats in your own kitchen.

Ready The Dough

Stir flour, granulated sugar, yeast, salt, and nutmeg in a bowl, and then add egg yolks, warm water, and butter. Then beat the mixture until the dough is smooth. You’ll then need to place the dough in a large bowl coated in oil.

Make The Donuts

Cover the bowl and let the contents rise for one and a half hours. Cut the dough into eight round pieces and preheat your oven to 350°F. Place four dough rounds in hot oil and cook in the oven until each side is golden brown. Do the same for the remaining donuts.

Finishing Touches

Allow donuts to stand and cool for 10 minutes. Then, get some jam and use a butter knife to place it in the center of each donut. Finally, sprinkle confectioners’ sugar on the outside of each donut before serving.

Baked Banana Donuts

If you’re a huge fan of banana bread and want to make donuts that taste just like it, this recipe will be your cup of tea. Olsen used dark chocolate glaze to make them extra delicious.

Baked Apple Cider Donuts

You can use apple cider to take all sorts of desserts to the next level this winter, and donuts are no exception. Pour some apple cider into the batter when baking your donuts and get ready to be wowed by their amazing taste.

Baked Pumpkin Spice Donuts

Speaking of the classic fall and winter ingredients that can help your desserts truly pop, pumpkin spice also falls under that category. In addition to tasting like pumpkin spice latte, these donuts are impossible to resist thanks to their maple glaze with chopped nuts.

Peach Crumb Baked Donuts

Baked donuts are much healthier than deep-fried ones, but you can make them even better by adding the right ingredients to the mix—such as peaches.

They’re the ideal dessert for cold winter months, and Instagram is overflowing with delicious recipes. Julia Trigo of Delight Fuel shared some of the very best, and here are our personal favorites.

Mini Cinnamon Donuts

Cinnamon and winter go hand and hand, and this is one of the most popular smells that we associate with this season. If you’ve been adding this spice to every dessert that you make this winter, your donuts shouldn’t be an exception.

Maple Pumpkin Donuts

If you’ve been obsessing about pumpkin ever since fall, there’s no reason why you should stop eating it this winter. Pumpkins make everything better, and you can use them to take your donuts to the next level, especially if you add sweet maple glaze to the mix.

Glazed Citrus Donuts

Citrus fruits can help you boost your immune system this winter, and eating them fresh isn’t the only option. These donuts, made with freshly squeezed orange juice will win you over with their citrusy glaze.

Peppermint Mocha Mini Donuts

If you can’t resist desserts with a slightly minty taste, these donuts will be your cup of tea. In addition to containing peppermint extract, they’re also topped with crushed candy canes.

]]> Donuts aren’t necessarily considered a healthy treat, but their sweet taste and fluffy texture are impossible to resist. If you can’t imagine completely cutting them out of your diet, here are a few tips that can help you put a healthy twist on this beloved comfort food.

Cutting on Sugar

Donuts are usually much sweeter than they should be, but this problem is easily avoided. Just cut on sugar that you’re using in your dough and ditch sugary toppings, such as sprinkles and Nutella.

No Frying

Fried and glazed donuts are the most common variety, but they also happen to be the least healthy option due to their high fat and calorie content. Baked donuts are a much better option because they’re not deep-fried.

Flour Choice

The flour you’re using when baking your donuts makes a huge difference. Wheat flour is best avoided, especially since there are so many healthier, gluten-free alternatives on the market these days.

Right Toppings

The toppings you use will make or break your donuts. As mentioned before, sugar-rich chocolaty spreads are best avoided, and you should consider replacing them with nuts, seeds, fruits, and healthy spreads.

  2. In another bowl, beat in 2 eggs and slowly whisk in 1 1/4 cup of unsalted melted butter.
  3. In another bowl, combine 4 cups of all purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  4. Pour in all the wet ingredients into the bowl of a stand mixer with the dough hook and start it up, gradually adding 1/2 cup of the dry mixture at a time so it combines slowly.
  5. After 5 minutes, pour the dough into a greased bowl, cover it, and refrigerate it overnight.
  6. Take it out of the fridge an hour before you want to use it, roll it out so it’s 1/2 inch thick, and cut out the donuts.
  7. Cover them for 1 1/2 hours to rise, and then fry them in shortening at 350 F for about 1 minute on each side.
  8. Cover them in frosting, glaze, or just powdered sugar and enjoy!
