After locating a donut baking pan at our local kitchen shop Saturday, I decided to make the healthy whole wheat donuts I mentioned last week for breakfast yesterday. Fortunately, I doubled the recipe and made a dozen because they turned out perfectly and my donut loving Dad devoured four himself!
They satisfied my donut craving without creating the blood sugar spike and subsequent drop I usually experience with conventional donuts. I used half organic sugar and half xylitol in this experimental batch and finished them with a dusting of cinnamon and sugar upon removal from the oven. You could always drizzle them with icing if you wanted something a little sweeter.
Served with a steamy latte, organic strawberries, and Greek yogurt for a light and satisfying breakfast this may be the beginning of a new Sunday morning breakfast ritual.

I’m in Phx too…I want to make these and went out today to find a donut pan, but had no luck…where did you get your pan? I saw that on Sur la table & Williams-Sonoma website that they don’t have them, yet Target website does. I checked 2 Target’s with no luck! Help!
Thanks

Hi Erika, I found mine at Kitchen Classics, the great cooking store at 40th and Thomas. They had several when I was there last Saturday.
