Dietary ones are a great substitute for fatty sweets, which are plentiful during the carnival period. It is known that traditional donuts are a real calorie bomb, which results from the way they are fried. Therefore, it is worth modifying your recipe slightly or using ready-made recipes for fit donuts.
If we want to prepare diet donuts, we must be aware that they will not taste the same as traditional, deep-fried ones.. However, it is a good one a substitute for people who currently care about their diet or they want to prepare such sweets more than once a year.
When preparing diet donuts, we must remember to:
- reduce the amount of fat in the dough,
- bake donuts instead of frying them,
- use low-sugar jams for filling,
- instead of decorating icing, use xylitol powder,
- replace the sugar with erythritol or xylitol (sometimes, however, you will need 1 teaspoon of sugar for the yeast to rise).

If you want to prepare fit donuts, it is worth making them in the oven. This will allow us to save a lot of calories because we will avoid deep-frying the delicacy. To prepare them we will need the following:
- 50 g of fresh yeast,
- 1 tablespoon of sugar,
- 500 g of spelled flour,
- 100 g of butter,
- 250 ml of 0% milk,
- 1 egg,
- 4 yolks.
Additionally, we need to prepare one more egg and low-sugar jam. Then we can proceed to preparing our diet donuts. The first step is to mix warm milk with 1 teaspoon of sugar, a few tablespoons of flour and crushed yeast.. Cover the whole thing with a cloth and leave for about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a pot. Steam the yolk, egg and remaining sugar. Then pour the remaining flour into a bowl. Add the solution and egg mass. Knead everything, gradually adding melted margarine, until we obtain a smooth mass. Cover the bowl with a cloth and leave for 50 minutes.
After this time has passed Place the dough on a board sprinkled with flour and roll it out until it is about 1 cm thick. Cut out discs from it and flatten each one slightly. Place half a teaspoon of filling in the center and form a ball, gluing the edges together.
Place the donuts on a baking tray lined with baking paper and leave to rise for half an hour. Then brush them with beaten egg and bake at 180 degrees until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
