Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup Apple juice
  • 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup Pure maple syrup
  • 3/4 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour or a gluten-free one-to-one blend or oat flour. I used half cup of a gluten-free blend and half cup of oat flour.
  • 1 tsp Baking powder ~ corn-free if needed
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
  • Optional maple butter for drizzle or any frosting flavor you like

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350-degrees F.
  • Lightly grease a donut pan.
  • In a mixing bowl add first 5 ingredients and whisk together.
  • In a small bowl add flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir to combine.
  • Add flour mixture to apple juice mixture and stir to combine.
  • Spoon into prepared donut pan filling just 3/4 full.
  • Bake for 10 minutes or a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and let donuts sit for 7 minutes before removing them from the pan. While they continue to cool on a wire rack add drizzle or lightly frost. As the donuts cool the drizzle or frosting will firm up.
  • Drizzle has about 35 calories for 1/2 a tablespoon.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or refrigerate. Freeze for longer storage.

Notes

1/2 Tablespoon of maple butter is 35 extra calories
