I aimed to create a delicious, low-fat, healthy and easy recipe! And started experimenting.

The recipes on the instructions that come with these donut makers say to fill the molds using a piping bag, but it's such a bother... Even if the donuts aren't so nice and neat, I wanted them to be tasty, and came up with this recipe. For 4 batches of 6 = 24 mini donuts. Recipe by Shi-a1118

Steps

1

Sift the ★ ingredients together. Melt the butter by microwaving for 30 seconds or so.
2

Beat an egg in a bowl, add the sugar and mix well.
3

Add milk and mix. Add tofu, and mash it up with a whisk as you incorporate. If some small lumps remain, it's OK!
4

Add the ★ dry ingredients. Change to a rubber spatula and cut in the mixture.
5

Add melted butter and mix again. When the batter is no longer floury and has turned glossy, it's done.
6

Heat an electric mini donut machine. Spoon the batter into the donut molds. The batter will puff up so don't overfill the molds - about the level shown in the photo above is OK.
7

The donuts are done in 1 and a half to 3 minutes. Cut off the bits that stick out if you like.
8

The donuts have a different texture depending on how long they're cooked. These were cooked for 1 and a half to 2 minutes. They have a subtle tofu fragrance and are very soft.
9

These were baked for about 3 minutes. They're nutty and crispy on the outside. You can barely detect tofu in these.

The holes may be blocked up, so poke them through with a chopstick.
