Donuts are one of the most popular desserts thanks to their delicious taste and fluffy texture, but that doesn’t necessarily make them healthy. If you don’t want to give them up, it’s time to adjust your go-to recipe and take these steps to make them a little bit healthier.

Cut Out the Sugar

Donuts tend to be much sweeter than they should be, and this problem is easy to resolve. Cut out the sugar that you’re using in your dough and don’t go overboard with sugary toppings.

Flour Type

Flour is one of the main ingredients that you’ll need to make donuts, and you can make them healthier by using the right type. If you’re trying to make your donuts gluten-free, replace wheat flour with healthier substitutes.

Baking Method

Most people think of fried, glazed donuts whenever someone brings up this dessert, but they’re not the healthiest possible option on the market. If you want to reduce fats and calories, baked donuts are a much better alternative.

Healthy Toppings

Most people can’t imagine eating donuts without topping them with Nutella and sprinkles. These surgery ingredients will ruin all your hard work, and you should replace them with healthier spreads, seeds, nuts, and fruits.

Can you believe that November starts next week? The eleventh month of the year is best known for one of the most important food-based celebrations out there—Thanksgiving—but there are a number of lesser-known gastronomic festivities that can be celebrated in November too.

Let’s take a look at some of the best ones, which you can choose to celebrate in the upcoming weeks!

November 5th: National Doughnut Day

Doughnuts are one of my favorite sweet treats. Whether they are doughy or cakey, baked or fried, frosted or plain—there is always a type of doughnut you can find out there to make you happy. You could even try a special fall variety—like an apple cider or a maple bacon doughnut—on this day!

November 17th: Homemade Bread Day

Making bread at home isn’t as difficult as you probably think it is. Why not put your skills to the test on the seventeenth of November and try to make a loaf of sourdough or rye in your own kitchen? Seeing the final result is so rewarding!

November 30th: National Mousse Day

Mousse is a light and fluffy dessert made from whipped egg whites, whipped cream, or both, and flavored with additions such as chocolate, fruit, or coffee. Why not order this treat at your favorite restaurant or even try making your own on the last day of November?
