Lemon Cinnamon Doughnuts

These doughnuts are literally my most favorite thing I have ever made on slimming world. I have made the baked oat ones before and I am not really that keen if I'm being honest. I wanted to make some that are more like a real doughnut texture (only so much one can do with a baked oat babe). 

The doughnuts are just under 1 1/2 syns each if making 12 small ones. They are no Krispy Kreme, but a pretty close second.

Ingredients

100g Self Raising Flour (16 syns)

Half a small pot of Quark 

4 Tbsp Sweetener 

1 Egg

Tsp Baking Powder (1/2 syn)

4 Tbsp Lemon juice 

Zest of one Lemon 

Cinnamon Lemon Drizzle 

4 Tbsp lemon juice

Tsp ground cinnamon 

3 Tbsp of sweetener 

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 170°C.  Spray a doughnut tray/mould (I got mine from amazon) with Frylight. This recipe makes 12 small doughnuts or 6 big ones. 
2. To make the doughnuts, sieve the flour and baking powder into a bowl.  Add the quark, lemon juice, sweetener, lemon zest and egg to the flour and mix well 
3. Once combined evenly spoon the mixture into the doughnut mould and pop in the oven for 12-15 minutes (small doughnuts) 20-25 minutes (larger doughnuts) - *PLEASE NOTE* All ovens are different and these are only guidelines. These doughnuts should be firm to touch and a dark golden colour
4. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a cooling rack 
5. Once completely cooled remove the doughnuts from the mould
6. To make the cinnamon lemon drizzle, combine the lemon juice, 2 tbsp of the sweetener and cinnamon in a bowl and mix well 
7. With a knife poke some holes in the tops of the doughnuts and pour the drizzle over them
8. Using the last tbsp of sweetener, sprinkle the doughnuts to give them that freshly sugared look ....just like at the fairground 😊
