Happy National Donut Day!
Donuts are one of my favorites to snack on. But with all honestly, I don’t indulge in them because it’s not a healthy snack option. I actually can’t remember the last time we bought donuts.
But after learning that today is National Donut Day, I have this urge to buy a box of donuts again. My husband is not a donut fan so if I buy a box, it’s just me and my son who’s going to eat them. I remember sharing a picture of donuts in my Facebook account before and my friend commented that I should watch my diet. LOL. I know, right? But trust me, I don’t buy donuts often. I think it’s safe to say that we only buy donuts once in a blue moon. 🙂
So anyway, I was thinking that there could be a healthy version of donuts somewhere so I searched the world wide web for healthy donut recipes and lo’ and behold…they actually do exist. 🙂
I haven’t tried preparing donuts before, but after reading these recipes, they seem to be easy to prepare. I have baked cookies, brownies and cakes so I think baking these donuts won’t be that hard.
So here’s a list of healthy donut recipes that you might want to check out too if you’re thinking of a healthier option of this delicious dessert.
- Healthy Krispy Kreme Donuts
- Fluffy Chocolate Donuts
- Baked Vanilla Donuts with Vanilla Glaze
- Baked Blueberry Lemon Yogurt Donuts
- (Coconut Flour) Cake Donuts
- Red Velvet Mini Doughnuts
There you have it…six healthy donut recipes to decadently indulge on.
Do you love to snack on donuts too or perhaps have them as dessert?
If you do, I hope you enjoy celebrating National Donut Day!
Happy Friday, friends and hope y’all have a great weekend!
