INGREDIENT NOTES:

PUMPKIN PUREE:

  • This is a pumpkin spice donut, so we will utilize pumpkin puree. Adding this ingredient will make your donuts softer. The taste of them will also become sweeter. Naturally, you will not have to use any butter or oil for moisture. An alternative idea for you to try can be sweet potato puree.

NON-FAT GREEK YOGURT:

  • For mixing the batter of the donuts, you will find this Greek yogurt helpful. Another reason is that the donuts will get softer from using this too. Non-fat Greek yogurt will be a better option for a Weight Watchers recipe. If there is another thing you want to try, it can be unsweetened applesauce.

ZERO-CALORIE SWEETENER:

  • We basically make use of this ingredient so that you can control Weight Watchers points. It will not be as heavy as sugar, and this will make your donuts sweeter. Coconut sugar is an idea for you to use as well.

ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR:

  • The donuts will not make a good shape if we do not use any flour in them. This is why all-purpose flour will be a decent option to use in your recipe. All-purpose flour will not break your donuts when they bake. Oat flour is an alternative option, too.

CINNAMON AND PUMPKIN SPICE:
