Raw Vegan Raspberry Chocolate Donuts

These Raw Vegan Raspberry Chocolate Donuts are for those of you who love a good donut, but your tummy doesn’t. Traditional donuts are chock full of gluten which can weaken the gut lining and cause inflammation in the body. This recipe on the other hand, is completely gluten free (and dairy free too!) as well as full of fiber, good fats, antioxidants (thanks to raw cacao!) and is sweetened consciously with a low GI (Glycemic Index) sweetener.
