Chocolate Vegan Spiced Donuts
To be honest, I’m not a huge fan of chocolate. However, when I’m in the mood for it. It’s chocolate everything. After making my homemade baked pumpkin vegan donuts not too long ago. I was in the mood for chocolate vegan donuts. This recipe turned out delicious. It’s so nice to be able to have a healthy treat whenever that's pretty much guilt free. What I love about creating recipes is that it’s all about trial and error. Sometimes the recipe comes out perfect on the first batch, and sometimes it takes a little tweaking. Which leaves me with plenty of samples. Since my lifestyle change. I honestly try to make my recipes as healthy as possible as well as low in calories. This the reason they’re not dipped in a homemade chocolate frosting recipe for those who are wondering. I’m sure the homemade frosting I made for the sweet potato brownies I made would be super yummy for this recipe though. I love that this recipe is super easy to make and I had all of the ingredients on hand. This recipe is pretty much perfect for any time of the day. Whether you want a quick snack or something to indulge in, in the mornings.

Those sound so good! I love all the flavors and I love the look of them. I'd definitely give them a try.
ReplyDeleteAlways nice to have some vegan recipes on hand to make for some of our friends who would prefer to eat this way. These sound and look delicious.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy my chocolate, so I'm sure I'd love these. I'm not even vegan, but I'd give them a try. Donuts always make me happy.
ReplyDeleteBoth my sister and my son would enjoy these donuts. As well as being a nice treat for my sons teachers.
ReplyDeleteI like donuts but I think I would prefer these. I'm getting to where I don't like all that sugar on regular donuts. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteIt is s o great to have some vegan choices that you provide. I am not a baker but this seems like a treat we will need every once in a while.
ReplyDeleteThese look amazing! I love that they're made with oat flour and I know that my boys would love making (and eating) them! I just double checked...baked instead of fried too? Wow.
ReplyDeleteOhh now these sound delicious and as I have some vegan family members it is always good to have a recipe or two up my sleeve to surprise them with!
ReplyDeleteHi Tasheena, The donuts look and sound soooo yummy! I always try to eat vegan whenever possible. I'll be picking up oat flour the next time I'm at the grocery store. I can't wait to try your recipe!
ReplyDeleteThese look yummy! We have some vegan friends and its nice to have some good recipes for things to serve to guests. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI'm SUCH a fan of doughnuts and looking for healthier recipes, especially that I can use almond or coconut flour in since I'm cleaning up what I eat. I'll have to try this recipe that way :)
ReplyDeleteI'm totally pinning these! I lost a lot of weight this past year but I certainly didn't lose my sweet tooth. These are a much healthier option than regular donuts. Love, love, love!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like something I'd want to try! Thanks for sharing the recipe. It's perfect for the holidays coming up.
ReplyDeleteIhaven't tried oat flour. I wonder if it would be better than the coconut flour I use in other recipes. The donuts look delicious.
ReplyDeleteMy whole family loves donuts. The best way to start a day! I am so glad that I found a vegan recipe!
ReplyDeleteI was vegan throughout college, and there was NOTHING. I'm so thrilled that there are commercially available vegan products around, but also amazing recipes to make at home. These sound awesome!
ReplyDeleteI've only had vegan donuts once, but they were soo delicious! I would love to try making my own. Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteThese donuts look like they would be so amazing! I am definitely going to have to give these a try.
