Healthy Pumpkin Spice Donuts

This was my first crack at making healthy donuts.

And it was a success.

A very, very big, success!

I figured it only made sense to do healthy pumpkin spice donuts since were smack dab in the heart of fall right now. Plus, I'm a sucker for pretty much all things pumpkin.

These donuts are...

Dense

Crumbly 

Sweet, with a hint of spice 

& Highly addicting

If there is one recipe of mine that you make this month, I highly encourage you to make this one! And if you take me up on that, and try these healthy pumpkin spice donuts for yourself, don't forget to snap a pic and tag it #thedietchef. As always, you can check out this recipe, and many many more on The Diet Chef YouTube channel!
