Here are the ingredients you will need:
For the doughnuts:
- 50g apple, chopped
- 1 egg • 40g oat flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Sweetener to taste (optional)
- For the topping:
- Melted dark chocolate
Method
1. Blend the Apple and Egg:
Start by adding the apple and egg to a mixing bowl. Blend until smooth, creating a thick, liquid consistency. This will ensure the apple flavour is infused throughout every bite!
2. Add Dry Ingredients:
Mix in the oat flour and baking powder, stirring until the batter is smooth. If you prefer a sweeter doughnut, feel free to add a pinch of your favourite sweetener to taste.
3. Cook the Doughnuts:
Pour the batter evenly into a doughnut tray. Place in the microwave and cook in short intervals of 30 seconds, checking after each to avoid overcooking. It should take around 2-3 minutes, depending on your microwave’s strength. The doughnuts should feel springy to the touch when done.
4. Cool and Add Chocolate Topping:
Let the doughnuts cool completely. Then, dip each one into melted dark chocolate, coating the tops. Place them on a cooling rack or baking paper and let the chocolate set. (Tip: Speed up the setting by popping them in the fridge for a few minutes.)
5. Enjoy!
Once the chocolate has set, your doughnuts are ready to enjoy! Pair with a cup of tea or coffee for a perfect snack or dessert.
Tips for Perfect Chocolate Apple Doughnuts:
- Oat Flour Substitute: If you don’t have oat flour, you can easily make it by blending oats in a food processor until fine.
- Extra Flavour: Add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract for an extra layer of flavour that pairs beautifully with the apple and chocolate.
- Storage: Keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Enjoy them cold or give them a quick warm-up in the microwave!
These Chocolate Apple Doughnuts are a delicious way to get your protein and fibre while indulging your sweet tooth. Enjoy every bite!
