Ingredients

  • Nonstick cooking spray

  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour

  • ¼ cup yellow cornmeal

  • 1 - 2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary

  • 2 teaspoon lemon zest

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ½ cup plain low-fat yogurt

  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar

  • ¼ cup refrigerated or frozen egg product, thawed

  • 3 tablespoon olive oil

  • ½ cup powdered sugar

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Coat a mini (2-inch) doughnut pan with cooking spray. In a bowl combine the next six ingredients (through salt). In another bowl combine the next four ingredients (through oil); whisk until smooth. Add yogurt mixture to flour mixture; stir until well mixed and smooth.

  2. Spoon batter into a large resealable plastic bag. Using scissors, cut off a small corner; squeeze batter into prepared pan, filling each cup about two-thirds full. Smooth tops.

  3. Bake about 8 minutes or until doughnuts are nearly firm when lightly pressed. Cool in pan on a wire rack 3 minutes. Turn doughnuts out of pan onto wire rack; cool completely.

  4. For icing, in a bowl stir together powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Dip cooled doughnuts into icing, allowing excess icing to drip back into bowl. Transfer to a wire rack. Let stand until icing is set.
