Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 325F.

Brush 2 six-mold donut trays with coconut oil and set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, flours, potato starch, arrowroot, baking powder, cinnamon, xanthan gum, salt, ginger, and baking soda.

Add the 1/3 cup coconut oil, the applesauce, vanilla, and hot water and mix with a rubber spatula just until the ingredients are combined.

Fold in the chocolate sauce just until the batter becomes marbled.

Using a melon-baller or tablespoon, drop 2 1/2 tablespoons of batter into each donut mold.

Using a toothpick, spread the batter evenly around the mold.
8

Bake for 8 minutes, rotate, and continue to bake for another 8 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown.

Let cool in the molds for 5 minutes if sprinkling with toppings such as cinnamon sugar, or 15 minutes if using glaze or icing.

Run a knife around the donuts in the molds, lift them out, and place them on a baking sheet.
