🍓 Healthier strawberry donuts

My soon to be kindergarten was a bit upset that we decided not to go to the strawberry festival since he overheard me telling his daddy about strawberry donuts.

So I promised him I’d make him strawberry donuts.

But, now and days I always try to make a healthier version of things 😂

Both the kids were happy with the results. The oldest said they were soft.

I kind of think they tasted like a grab and go pancake 😂 take that as you wish.

Next time though, I think I’ll skip the almond extract and increase the cardamom to 1 tsp (I like cardamom.)

Recipe:
Combine dry ingredients
🍓 1 3/4 whole wheat flour
🍓 2 tsp baking powder
🍓 1/2 tsp cardamom
Separate bowl (wet ingredients)
🍓 1/2 cup milk
🍓 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
🍓 2 eggs
🍓 2 Tbs olive oil
🍓 2 tsp vanilla extract
🍓 1 tsp almond extract
🍓 1/3 cup maple syrup
🍓 1 cup chopped strawberries (hulled)

Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Grease donut pans and fill batter to almost top.

Bake at 350 for 16 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar (I used swerve powdered sugar)
