Raw & Vegan 'Donut Cereal'


Here is a yet another recipe - Raw &Vegan Donut Cereal. This recipe is totally vegan and sweetened with natural agents. It's taste is as good as donut made with heavy ingredients. The advantage of this recipe is that it's a little low in calories and high in taste so that you may enjoy it's taste with low calorie consumption.

INGREDIENTS


- 2 cups oats, blended into a meal
- 1 cup ground almonds
- 1/2 cup date paste
- 1-2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp pure vanilla powder or extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- a few tbsp water

pinch of salt


To serve:


- Melted Chocolate & Sprinkles to ice donuts


- Plant based Milk of choice to serve



METHOD


1. Combine the ground almonds/oats and spices in a mixing bowl.


2. Add the date paste & maple syrup and work with your hands until it begins to stick together into a dough.


3. Gradually adding a few tbsp of water at a time to help it bind. 


4. Add enough water until it is a pliable dough that holds together well.


5. Press into mini silicone donut moulds and chill for 20-30 minutes.


 **(or you could prepare them the night before for the morning)**


6. If icing with vegan chocolate simply ice then chill them in the freezer for 5 minutes to set the chocolate.


7. Serve with plant based milk and anything else your heart desires.



 ** Date paste is simply dates that have been pitted, soaked in boiling water then drained and processed into a thick paste. I keep it stored in the fridge for these kind of occasions & for sweetening things.
