Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 180c/350f (gas mark 4)
2. Place oats in a blender or food processor and pulse
till fine.
3. Add the cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and
salt and mix to combine.
4. In a separate bowl add the egg, yogurt, sukrin:1 (or
other sweetener), water and vanilla extract and whisk till combined.
5. Add a couple of drops of red food colouring for the
red colour
6. Fold this into the oat mixture.
7. If your donut tray is not non stick you will need to
grease.
8. Add the batter to 9 holes of the doughnuts tray and
lightly tap the tray on the counter to evenly distribute
9. Place in the oven and bake for approx 13 mins
(a tooth pick entered into the middle should come out clear).
10. When you remove the doughnuts from the oven, allow
them to cool slightly in the tray and then carefully remove using a silicone
spatula by running it around the bottom.
11. In a bowl mix together the low fat cream cheese and
fat free Greek vanilla yogurt and a little sweetener to taste
12. Spread it over the top of each donut, and sprinkle
with the red sprinkles.
13. Enjoy 3 of these as a HEb and 3 syns - they are
yummy!!
