These Raw Vegan Raspberry Chocolate Donuts are for those of you who love a good donut, but your tummy doesn’t.

There is sooo much gluten in the original recipe and we all know how much gluten can weaken the gut lining and cause inflammation in the body.

So this recipe, is completely gluten free (and dairy free I might add) as well as full of fibre, good fats, and low GI sweetener as well as antioxidant rich cacao.

Method:

Place dry ingredients in food processor and run until it gets a bit sticky. Place in a bowl and add rest of ingredients and work with hands to combine.
