Ingredients:

3 tablespoons hemp milk

1/2 cup greek yogurt

1/4 cup melted coconut oil

1 organic egg

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup sugar

1 cup AP flour; sifted

1-2 tablespoons cacao powder (add more depending on how dark you’d like it)

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

non stick oil (I use olive oil)

For the glaze:

1 blood orange; juiced

Zest of blood orange

1 cup powdered sugar

1/4 teaspoon cacao powder

1 tablespoon or more of hemp milk

Cacao nibs for garnish

Method:

Place oven rack in center.   Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a mixing bowl, beat together the Greek yogurt, sugar, coconut oil, egg, 3 tablespoons of hemp milk, and vanilla extract.  Use whisk and beat until well combined and smooth.

In a separate bowl whisk together all of the dry ingredients until well incorporated.  Once this is done, fold the dry ingredients into the wet. DO NOT OVER MIX! Your goal is to create an airy, cake batter like texture.

Grease a mini doughnut pan with whatever non stick oil you desire.  Spoon in the batter, only filling half way to the top.  Place on middle rack in oven and bake 10 minutes.  When finished, test with a tooth pick to see if the doughnut is done.  If toothpick is clean when removed, it’s finished.  Let doughnuts cool in pan completely.

In the meantime, mix the powdered sugar with the remaining hemp milk, 1/2 tablespoon blood orange juice, and cacao powder.  If glaze is too thick, add more hemp milk or blood orange juice to thin it out.  Dip cooled doughnuts in glaze and top with blood orange zest and cacao nibs.  Let icing set and enjoy!

These are best eaten within the day they are made.
