    Peanut Butter Mocha Chip Donuts, baked to perfection and sweetened with pure maple syrup, one of my favorite ingredients to use to sweeten my recipes with!

    Peanut Butter Mocha Chip Baked Donuts
     What drew me into this particular recipe?  Everything.  King Arthur White Whole Wheat Flour, maple syrup, applesauce, no eggs and the fact that they are baked.  Because my family produces maple syrup, I always have some on hand.  So, anytime I see a recipe that includes it, I give it my full attention!  The applesauce I used in this recipe was homemade applesauce that my Dad and Mom made from apples they grow on their property.

    I used Trader Joe's Chunk Peanut Butter, just something about that particular brand of peanut butter that I love.  Another great plus to this recipe is the fact that on the second day they are NOT SOGGY.  That is a big plus for us because with just Grumpy and me eating these, we are not going to eat the whole batch in one day.  Well, we probably could, but we wouldn't!

    A perfect breakfast of these donuts, almond milk, and a banana!
    These gems do not need any glazing.  Oh, you could certainly put some on, but they don't need it.  I love how they are naturally sweet and went great with my almond milk, but they were fabulous with my cup of coffee!  I'm such a coffee fan that I immediately think of using it if I have any leftover in my pot after my first morning cup.  While mixing these together, I was basically following the recipe, grabbed the almond milk out of my fridge then when I turned around my eye caught the coffee pot with a little left at the bottom.  I immediately knew I would sub some of the milk with coffee.  If you don't drink coffee, no biggie, just use milk as the original recipe is written.
    Note:  Melissa heats her peanut butter up on the stove with the syrup.  I did not need to do that.  The peanut butter I use from Trader Joe's is not a solid, hard to stir peanut butter, so I just whisked all my wet ingredients together.

    Prep time: 10 mins
    Cook time: 15 mins
    Total time: 25 mins
    Serves: 1 dozen
    Ingredients
    • 2 cups white whole wheat flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ½ cup chunky peanut butter
    • ½ cup maple syrup
    • ⅓ cup applesauce
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla
    • 2 tablespoons almond milk
    • 2 tablespoons coffee
    • ½ cup mini chocolate chips
    Instructions
    1. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt into a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
    2. Whisk together peanut butter, maple syrup, applesauce, vanilla, almond milk, and coffee until well blended.
    3. Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and stir until just moistened. Fold in mini chocolate chips.
    4. Batter will be thick and you will not have a fluid fill of the donut pan. You will want to spoon it in and pat the dough down.

      Um, yes please. And, if my husband sees these, he's definitely asking for them!! I also love that they are vegan! Yum! I love that they don't need a glaze. I am wondering about a coffee glaze on them, mmmm, too much? Thanks for sharing this recipe!
