These hidden veggie chocolate donuts are a yummy treat you’ll feel good about serving your toddler (or yourself!!)

The way my son woke up every single morning after I made these asking for a “dodi nonut” aka chocolate donut. Instant hit in our house!! And super nutritious from the oats, spinach, and yogurt. Give them a try and let me know if your little one approves!

Also, if you don’t have oat flour, you can blend oats to make it. That’s what I usually do!

Ingredients

1 cup fresh spinach packed
1 medium ripe banana
1 egg
1/3 cup Greek yogurt
1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup oat flour
1/4 cup almond flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
pinch salt
optional: 2 tbsp mini chocolate chips for topping

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a donut pan.
Add the spinach, banana, egg, Greek yogurt, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla to a blender and blend until completely smooth.
Pour into a bowl, then add the oat flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir until just combined.
Spoon or pipe the batter into the donut pan, filling each about 3/4 full. Top with chocolate chips if using.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, until the centers are set and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
Let cool for about 10 minutes before removing from the pan. They will continue to firm up as they cool.

Here’s a link to my donut pan. I love that it’s metal reinforced so it’s not flimsy going in and out of the oven, and it’s dishwasher safe!

Enjoy! And find more of my recipes here.
