Welcome to Day #9 of Chocolate, Holiday Spices and Maple Theme Week(s).
Today's Chocolate Chip Know Better Donut, from Know Foods (Atlanta, GA), looked a little lonely; so it received some homemade "frosting" (made of organic cream cheese, maple (syrup), cinnamon and spices).This baked good looked like a cross between a bagel and a donut, and appeared to be far healthier than most donuts, even with a rich topping.
Know Foods is building a brand for itself based on products like these Know Better Donuts, billed as: "...natural, non-GMO, grain/gluten free*, high protein, high fiber, low carb and low sodium—and have a near zero sodium index..."
Other health stats of note:
- 8 grams of fiber per donut
- 12 grams of protein per donut
- 6 grams net carbs per donut
Sounds good. These donuts were made with almonds* instead of grains. And the donut tasted better than many gluten-free baked goods. It was substantial and, refreshingly, not too sweet. (It did use allulose, a relatively new sweetener that we know little about.)
