Ingredients

Scale
  • Doughnuts
  • 1 1/2 cups spelt flour (or sprouted spelt flour)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Ganache
  • 1/2 cup chopped semi-sweet chocolate, plus extra for garnish
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350˚ and lightly grease a doughnut pan for six doughnuts.
  2. In a bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg, buttermilk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined (do not over stir- this will cause a tougher doughnut.)
  3. Spoon the batter into the prepared doughnut pan (or, pour into a ziplock back, cut the end off, and squeeze the batter into each doughnut cut-out.)
  4. Place in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until doughnuts are golden and spring back when pressed. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Transfer to a rack to finish cooling.
  5. Combine the chocolate and heavy cream in a double boiler (or a heat-proof bowl set over a pot of simmering water). Heat until chocolate begins to melt, stirring until the ganache is well combined. Dip the top half of the doughnut into the chocolate and return to the cooling rack. Shave chocolate on top to finish.
