Chocolate Donuts

1 cup non-dairy milk
1 tsp. lemon juice
2 tsp. vanilla extract
3 T. pure maple syrup
1/4. c. succanat
2 T. olive oil
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup dark chocolate cocoa powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips

Add the lemon juice to the milk and stir briefly, then let it sit for a bit.  In a medium size bowl, place the vanilla, syrup, succanat and oil.  Add the milk and whisk until smooth.  In a sifter or sieve, place the flours, cocoa, salt, baking powder and soda.  Sift into the liquid ingredients.  Add chips.  Mix until combined.

Spoon into 2 prepared donut pans -- this recipe will make 12 donuts.  Bake at 350 for 15 minutes.  For the infamous breakfast, I let them cool for a bit and then swished them in a turbinado sugar/cinnamon "powdered sugar" that I made by grinding the sugar in a coffee grinder until it was the desired texture.

A note about the pans -- I got mine at Walmart -- they are Wilton pans.  Each pan makes 6 donuts.  I have another mini-donut pan (non-Wilton)  that I don't like as well.  They tend to stick and it's harder to work with the small size.  My baking assistant is partial to this one, tho'.
