Dipping Donuts Dunking Doughnuts DairyFree Donuts!
Day four of the A-Z challenge brings us to ‘D’
Another seemingly easy letter but being a Saturday if you’re a regular to Life Diet Health you’ll know that’s my cake and chocolate posting day! So donuts it had to be! I’m certain when I was at school it was doughnuts!? Anyway, dipping or dunking doughnut or donuts, these are not only dairy free, but egg free, gluten free and refined sugar free too! 🙂 I know! 🙂 I do however have a little machine which cooks these into perfect little round shapes but I’m sure a waffle iron, a sandwich toaster or a flat griddle would work too! 🙂
Anyway, I wanted it to be ‘P’ today or even ‘C’ again would have worked as I made something SO bizarre last night but so incredibly tasty! On my flight to Istanbul last weekend I just happened to sit next to someone whose ex-boyfriend was a vegan and this concept came from her! It was so yummy even though (of course) I made up my own recipe and I just wish I could post it today! You’ll have to wait for ‘P’ on the 18th (oh no.. its a Saturday! well, its a savoury dish but it’s almost as yummy as cake)! 😛 🙂
So.. back to D and the D’nuts! 😛

Serve & Store
- Serve with your favourite toppings! Sugar, syrup, fruit, jam, chocolate or anything else I’ve missed!
- Eat them warm straight from cooked 🙂
- Munch with a mug of hot drink!
- Store? err… well… if you don’t eat them all I guess you could put them in a covered container for a few days!
- Dip them. Dunk them. Top them. Spread them. Eat them!!! 🙂
Yummy! I love the idea of donuts without being soaked in oil and deep fried. So much healthier! 🙂
Oh Milica… I completely forgot!!! I’ve never even liked donuts! ??? Isn’t it amazing how great real food tastes ☺ and how we shouldn’t let past experiences cloud our judgement! I could eat these all day! ☺
To be quite honest, I didn’t eat too many regular donuts. My mom just didn’t make them for some reason. But, I did like them 😀 We never stop being amazed how ‘real’ food tastes like! 🙂
I was thinking of you when I made dinner… tried to keep it raw! Two out of three! 🙂
I am honored! 🙂 More raw, fresh veggies is always a good thing! 😉
?indeed they are ☺
Oh I love the look of these and they look yummy.
Thanks Chloe 🙂 All of my recipes are dairy/lactose free (and usually gluten and egg free too)! Hope to see you back here again soon! 🙂
They do look scrummy but unfortunately I probably wouldn’t have them all to myself!!
Liu… wait til the children are in bed & hubby’s at work then get busy in the kitchen! ? Second thoughts… maybe you still wouldn’t get to eat them ‘cos if I knew you were making them I’d come over and help you! ?
I made your tasty donughts & healthy they were too!
My hubby Peter, I & some friends all loved them so much! xxxx
Thanks Sophie 🙂 Do you have a doughnut machine or did you make them somehow else?
