Ingredients
  

2 cups plain Greek yogurt

1 cup unsweetened applesauce

1 tablespoon maple syrup (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon nutmeg

¼ teaspoon salt

1 large apple, peeled, cored, and finely diced (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

1 cup oat flour (or all-purpose flour)

1 teaspoon baking powder

Cooking spray or light oil for greasing

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut baking pan with cooking spray or oil.

    Mix Yogurt Base: In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, applesauce, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until well-blended.

      Add Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the oat flour, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the yogurt base, stirring gently until just combined.

        Incorporate Apples: Fold in the finely diced apple pieces until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

          Fill Donut Pan: Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity approximately 2/3 full.

            Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted.

              Cool and Freeze: Allow the baked donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Once completely cooled, place them in the freezer for at least 1 hour to firm up.

                Serve: Once frozen, these donut coins can be enjoyed immediately or stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Serve them as a delightful snack or dessert—perfect for any time of day!
