Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, grease a
donut pan
with baking spray.
Combine the flours, cocoa powder, salt, baking powder and chopped chocolate in a large bowl.
Whisk together the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl making sure there are no lumps from the avocado.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir to fully combine with a spatula.
Spoon the batter into the
donut pan
.
Bake for 20-22 minutes.
Remove from the oven, let cool a couple of minutes before removing from the pan and transferring to a cooling rack.
While the donuts cool combine the frosting ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.
Spread the frosting on top of the donut and top with cacao nibs.
Or, just toss the donuts in powdered sugar for a different topping option.
Notes
*Because the frosting has a full avocado in it, it will turn a darker green/brown as it sits. Frost before serving.
