Ingredients
Donut Holes:

  1. 1 cup self raising flour (or plain/all-purpose flour/s)
  2. 1 tablespoon sugar of choice
  3. 1/4 teaspoon salt
  4. 1 teaspoon baking powder
  5. (1/2 teaspoon baking soda if using plain or all purpose flour/s)
  6. 2 tablespoons canola oil (or melted coconut oil) OR light butter/spread of choice, melted
  7. 1 large egg
  8. 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  9. 1/2 cup low fat milk (or almond milk)

Filling:

  • 1/3 cup Nutella , melted (or this Refined Sugar-Free Nutella Spread)

Coating:

  • 1 tablespoon light butter/spread of choice , melted
  • 1/3 cup sugar of choice
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 176C | 350F. Spray a 24-count mini muffin tray with cooking oil spray; wipe over excess with paper towel and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk all of the dry ingredients together. Make a well in the centre and add the oil, egg, vanilla and milk. Whisk the batter until smooth and lump free.
  3. Spoon the batter (about 2 teaspoons) into each muffin hole, filling to to 3/4 full. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until they are golden in colour and a toothpick inserted into the centre of a donut comes out clean. Allow them to cool for 5 minutes and transfer them onto a cooling rack.
  4. Brush each donut over with a light coating of melted butter; combine the sugar and cinnamon together in a shallow bowl; toss each donut hole into the cinnamon sugar mix until evenly coated.
  5. Fill a piping bag with the Nutella. Using a a narrow nozzle, fill each donut with the Nutella until they puff up and expand (not too much or the donuts will overflow).
