    Strawberry Baked Donuts are a healthy baked donut recipe made with whole grain cereal. These homemade donuts are the perfect solution to busy mornings and are a delicious afternoon snack with a hot cup of tea or coffee.

    This delicious donut recipe is a take on a favorite muffin recipe that was updated to make in a donut form. They are full of fresh strawberries, and drizzled with a strawberry glaze, with just 1 grams of fat per donut!

    💭 Tips

    • A plastic bag (storage bag) can be used in place of the piping bag.
    • When cutting the piping bag, be sure to cut far enough up from the tip to allow a thick amount of batter to fill the donut molds

      I am obsessed with my Fitbit and steps - 16,000 steps per day or bust!

      I get that these are healthier donuts, but I love that everyone is sharing detox soups and paleo, gluten free, dairy free, Whole 30 chicken dishes today, and you're sharing donuts. You speak my love language.
