Finally, a good donut that doesn't taste like oil! These apple donuts are the perfect treat!

We cook the donuts in coconut oil, which is healthier and withstands high heat well. Plus, your donuts won't be greasy.

Glaze:

1/2 cup of icing sugar

1/2 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract

In another bowl, whisk the egg with the milk and add to the dry ingredients.
