Chocolate Chip Squash Donuts

1 1/2 cup flour (I recommend whole wheat, or at least half whole wheat, for extra fiber!)

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

1 egg

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce or nonfat plain greek yogurt (your choice)

1/4 cup skim milk plus 1 tsp vinegar to make buttermilk

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup grated squash

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

 

Directions:

1.)  In a medium bowl, sift dry ingredients (flour, sugars, soda, cinnamon and salt.

2.)  Place all wet in ingredients (egg, yogurt/applesauce, buttermilk, vanilla and squash) in a mini-blender or food processor and blend for 30 sec to a minute.

3.)  Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until fully incorporated.  Add in chocolate chips.
