Ingredients

  • 3/4 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 3/4 Cup Ragi Flour
  • 1/2 Cup Unrefined Country Sugar
  • 1/4 Cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 3/4 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 Teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 3 Tablespoon Full Cream Milk
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter (melted)
  • 1/2 Cup Cream
  • 1 Large Egg

Preparation

Prep: 15 minutes
Cooking: 15 minutes

  1. In a big bowl whisk together the dry ingredients so that they are mixed well.
  2. In another bowl whisk together the wet ingredients. Then add this slowly and fold into the dry ingredients to combine them well.
  3. Use a spoon to put the batter into a greased doughnut pan or mini-bundt which is what I used since I didn’t have the former.
  4. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the doughnuts spring back when you press them gently, at 175 degrees C in a preheated oven.
  5. Allow them to cool off in the pan and then place them on the wire rack to cool off completely.

I am a self-taught baker! I began baking for my children and soon it extended to more people. That's when I found my calling and started a healthy baking community, exchanging recipes with moms from around the country. It further evolved and we collectively baked for a larger community purpose - feeding the less privileged children. Continuing the conversation around healthy baking, I spoke at TEDx, became a SHEROES Champion and was a part of the Cherie Blair Foundation's Women in Business program. I am extremely passionate and driven towards creating awareness and opening up a whole new world of baking.
