Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
Method
  1. 1Melt butter in a saucepan until foamy golden brown (or just melted).
  2. 2In a mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.
  3. 3In a separate bowl, combine whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. 4Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a thick, pale beige batter forms.
  5. 5Spoon the batter evenly into a greased six-cavity metal donut pan, filling each mold.
  6. 6Bake the donuts in the oven until golden-brown and cooked through.
  7. 7Invert the baked donuts onto a metal wire cooling rack to cool completely.
  8. 8In a small copper saucepan, combine dark chocolate chips and avocado oil.
  9. 9Melt the chocolate mixture over low heat, whisking vigorously until it transforms into a smooth, glossy, dark brown ganache.
  10. 10Dip each cooled donut into the melted chocolate glaze using a fork, ensuring a full coating on one side.
  11. 11Place the glazed donuts back onto the wire rack and allow the chocolate glaze to set.
