Ingredients

wet ingredients

  • 180 g sourdough discard *
  • 110 g apple sauce
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) plant milk I used almond
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

dry ingredients

  • 125 g oat flour
  • 55 g date sugar (or brown/ coconut sugar)
  • 100 g raisins
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 1/2 heaped tsp cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp (30g) almondflour or (vegan) butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 200 C.
  • In a large bowl mix together sourdough discard, plant milk, apple sauce, vanilla extract, sugar, almond butter and cinnamon.
  • To a smaller bowl add the flour, baking soda and baking powder and give it a good mix as well. Then add to the larger bowl and give it a good stir until everything is well incorporated.
  • Fold in the raisins and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • In the meanwhile prepare a donut baking tin by creasing it with a little bit of oil/ butter. When the dough is ready, devide equally between the forms. Depending on how big or small your tray is, you`ll get around 8-10 donuts.
  • Bake for 10-15 Minutes. Let cool and Enjoy! Smear on some nut butter/ (vegan) butter, cream cheese...whatever you fancy!

Notes

*Don’t worry if you have no sourdough discard. You can swap it with a mixture of half yoghurt- half more oat flour (90g yogurt, 90g oatflour.) The batter doesn’t need to rest then, otherwise it will get a bit too firm.
