Chocolate Glazed Baked Chocolate Donuts (& a donut pan GIVEAWAY!) + Weekly Menu

Oh, hi. Yes, I’ve been sleeping in…and attending to very important matters like feeding my donut obsessed self these nearly guilt-free Chocolate Glazed Baked Chocolate Donuts. At 93 calories a piece, there’s no denying they will be the best spent calories of the day.

Week one on the job was great. I really, really love my new position thus far. Everyone is so nice and I feel like I am going to develop my skills as a dietitian. Not only will I be making the recommendations for IV vitamin D (a drug called Zemplar) in an effort to keep my patient’s bones healthy, but I will get to learn about IDPN (IV nutrition for dialysis patients so they are getting nutrition while they run treatment three days a week). This is all very exciting stuff in my little nutrition world. 😀

And I’m excited, too, about all things going on with this here, the blog (P.S. preventionrd.com will be getting a “face-lift” come February!). January has been a booming month, and I think I can attribute that to the healthy goals people set come the new year. Despite the cold, snowy, I-just-wanna-snuggle-on-the-couch-and-read-a-good-book weather, this time of year is filled with good intentions to eat well and be a healthier, happier you.

chocolateglazeddonuts1I think that’s a great goal any time of year…but there’s something very motivating about having so many people working towards the very same goals, at the very same time.

People, we are so in this together.

I have “seen” new faces on Facebook (I’m lovin’ it). I’ve had the chance to check out new healthy cooking and living blogs from the comments and emails you’ve sent my way, or tweeted my direction. And more than ever, I feel that those coming to my little corner of the web are actually trying and loving the food that I prepare, photograph, and post about. For me, it doesn’t get any better than that — so, thank you.

Chocolate Glazed Baked Chocolate Donuts adapted from Milk & Honey

Donuts:
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg
1/2 cup almond milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 Tbsp canola oil
3 Tbsp unsweetened applesauce

Chocolate Glaze:
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 tsp canola oil
1 Tbsp corn syrup
1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and coat a donut pan liberally with cooking spray.

Stir together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add the egg, milk, vanilla, oil, and applesauce; stir together for 1 minute.

Fill each cavity in the pan 1/2 of the way full with batter. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes or until the donuts spring back when lightly touched. Cool completely.

Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl. Add the corn syrup and oil and microwave in 20 second increments, stirring in between. Stir in the vanilla. Dunk each donut into the glaze and allow to set. Yield: 14 donuts.

Nutrition Information (per donut): 93 calories; 3.4 g. fat; 15 mg. cholesterol; 157 mg. sodium; 15.2 g. carbohydrate; 1.9 g. fiber; 1.1 g. protein

Result: Oh my yum! I slimmed down this recipes bunches and it was still delicious! The glaze makes it. These come together quickly and are good for several days afterwards. Is there anything better than a chocolate glazed chocolate donut…for under 100 calories a piece? Nah.

Before I get to the good stuff, here’s a weekly menu…

    I love orange anything, so I think I would make the orange ones first, closely followed by apple cinnamon. I love donuts…they are my highest ranked “I shouldn’t be eating this food.” But your pictures look so amazing!

  24. Jennifer
    January 21, 2012 / 12:52 pm

    Oh, my. If I had a donut pan I would try all of your recipes! They all look so good. But I think the first one I would make is the “Healthy” Baked Chocolate Chip Donuts. YUM!

I finally felt the need to comment when you mentioned donut pan because I’ve seen all your donuts recipes and would love to try them, but alas, no donuts pan! I would most likely try the pumpkin spice or apple cinnamon. In fact, I’d definitely try both! Thanks for offering the giveaway ๐Ÿ™‚

Scary (it’ already bad enough with the ice cream maker). I’m impressed with the stats of these donuts though, only 15 grams of carb and less than 100 calories?! Damn. Not bad.

    Oops. I would like to win a donut pan, but I didn’t answer your question! ๐Ÿ™‚ So the first donuts I would make are the apple cinnamon donuts!

    I would definitely make these chocolate donuts! I still don’t know why I have not bought a donut pan, I think I need to do this ASAP ๐Ÿ™‚

    I’m so glad you liked these! I will definitely try your spin on them when I make them again. As far as which donut I’d like to try, you know I loved the blueberry orange ones so next I’d like to try the chocolate chip!

    I have already tried the orange glazed blueberry. The only problem with them was that they were too good! I ate 4! I think I will try these as soon as I get some almond milk. Thanks for the great recipes!

    Apple Cinnamon! Tons of apple orchards in MI, the donuts would be an AMAZING use of apples in the fall.

    Yum, I would try maple cinnamon sugar donuts and my son would love just cake glazed. My 13 year old has been bugging me to buy the donut maker that is advertised on TV but I keep giving in because of the calories. Now that I have your recipes I need this pan so I can make your special ones. ๐Ÿ™‚

    As you’ve heard me say a million times, I really need a donut pan. Because of YOU. Since I’m a chocolate lover, I’d most likely make these ones you just posted or the chocolate chip ones! Crossing my fingers ๐Ÿ™‚

    I would most definitely try the pumpkin spice and I’d try it with the puree from the pumpkins I grew in my garden ๐Ÿ™‚

  140. Kristi aka FiberFool
    January 22, 2012 / 11:12 pm

    I’d be most likely to try the pumpkin spice with chocolate glaze or these chocolate with chocolate glaze. I adore cake donuts and since loosing 62 pounds in 2011 I haven’t had one in over a year. But the numbers you are getting would pretty easily slip into my nutrition guidelines. Thank you!

    I am desperate for a donut pan. I can’t find one anywhere, and should I ever get my hands on one, I’d be making the apple cinnamon donuts first. Apple and cinnamon is one of my favorite combinations.

    And btw, I’m so glad your first week went well. Starting a new job is so nerve racking.

    orange glazed blueberry are so different from what i would normally make that I think that’s the best way to start!

    OMG….I would make these donuts. Soooooooooooo gorgeous, I can’t stop looking/drooling/dreaming about them. Send me and cookie some puh-pllllllllllleeeeeease!!!!!

    Plus, I can’t wait to see your new makeover…how exciting for Prevention RD!

  148. Leah Cass

    I would definitely try all of them but I think I would try these ones first. They look so delicious and they are less calories than a special k bar!

  149. Jennifer
    February 1, 2012 / 10:03 pm

    Are these made in a regular size donut pan (i.e. 6 donuts per pan) or the mini donut size? I’m hoping for regular, but just want to be sure. Thanks!

    • Nicole, RD

      February 1, 2012 / 10:05 pm

      Jennifer: Yep – regular-sized! I would say they’re about 3 1/2-inch diameter ๐Ÿ™‚

    I tried the chocolate glazed donuts today and really had a hard time with the glaze, it seemed a bit chunky and I was scared to keep microwaving it because I didnt want to burn it ๐Ÿ™‚ Not sure what I did wrong. I think next time I will just buy a chocolate glaze frosting!! Thanks for the recipe!

    • Melanie
      February 20, 2013 / 10:53 am

      This happened to me too! I LOVE the look of your glaze so I tried making it twice, and both times it got really chunky and thick when I added the oil and corn syrup. Tastes delicious, but any thoughts on the texture? Your glaze looks so perfect and I’d loved to replicate it!

      • Nicole, RD

        Hi Melanie! Heat the chocolate and then add the oil versus heating them together – I think that might work better ๐Ÿ™‚

          One more note: if it still seems to be clumping up, add just a bit more oil. Wax is an option, too ๐Ÿ™‚ Paraffin wax can be found near the canning goods in grocery stores.

    Oh my… these look like the best things EVER! Gorgeous pics!!! For some reason, most grocery stores don’t have pastry flour though! I really want to try these, so do you think cake flour would work, and how would the nutritional info be changed? Would it be higher or lower? Thanks!!!

    What can I use in place of corn syrup? Can I use agave? I am using the glaze to put on your pumpkin buttermilk donuts!

    These are very good! I halved the recipe and just used a powdered sugar glaze on them. The texture is very close to a regular donut ๐Ÿ˜€

      Not mini, but on the smaller size of average. 3 1/2-4 inch diameter?
