Delicious baked donuts with the warm flavors of apples and cinnamon, topped with a sweet glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup applesauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan.
