Oh my goodness you guys... moving is NUTS! Every time I move, I think to myself, "I don't have that much stuff... this won't take long" and every time, I am SO. COMPLETELY. WRONG.
Does that happen to any of you?! But this time especially it has been soooo worth it!
I have just moved into a new condo that I am so excited to call home.
I have been overwhelmed with tears of joy at least 10 times since I started moving in. I am just so. freaking. grateful.
Ok anyway, enough of my sappiness - I could go on for days.
Here is a great new recipe for mini chocolate donuts because everything is cuter when it's mini! I also love mini things because it means I can eat lots of them in one sitting, which makes me feel like a rebel.
This is also a one-bowl recipe, which is always nice.In case I have to be MIA for a while getting all settled in, here is a list of my top 5 favorite recipes right now to keep you busy until I come back. Enjoy!!
1. 30-Minute Fat-Free Vegan Cinnamon Rolls / totally addicting & totally delicious
2. Low-Fat Vegan Cheeze Dip / savory, cheesy, & also addicting
3. Skinny Strawberry Muffins / super easy & easy to customize - blueberries, nuts, etc!
4. Avocado Toast / the simplest recipe ever that doesn't even count as a recipe
5. Just Peachy Margarita / moving sometimes calls for something a little stronger than a Peanut Butter & Banana Green Smoothie
6. Vegan Quiche / I know I said 5, but I just love this recipe too much not to include it!

Hey! I just made these and the taste is great. I have a question about the texture....
when I made the batter/dough, it was extremely dry and crumby. I was able to ball it up into one big ball but it crumbles apart when I broke it up. Also when the donuts came out of the oven and I tried them, they were really crumbly and dry. They tasted great but I wondered if you have tips for the texture. What is the dough supposed to look like? I followed the recipe to a T.
Hi Molly! Oh no! I'm not sure why!! Mine weren't crumbly at all... Hmm. Maybe try adding a little more liquid next time? Sometimes different brands of flours behave differently. So sorry about that!
