Baked Chocolate Almond Butter Donuts

These baked chocolate almond butter donuts will be the best donuts you’ve made! Coming from someone who is actually pretty neutral when it comes to donuts, I decided to make these donuts because I wanted a healthier option for my kids. I used real ingredients like flour, sugar, eggs, and milk, and added Once Again Amoré Organic Almond Spread with Milk Chocolate. I also used the spread as an icing for the donuts.

Once Again Organic Amore Almond Spread with Milk Chocolate

I was first introduced to the brand when they sent over their Organic Chocolate Hazelnut Spread. After whipping up a batch of Chocolate Hazelnut Ice Cream, I proceeded to eat the rest out of the jar, much like I did with their Organic Chocolate Almond Spread.
