Abbey’s Thoughts;

Okay, I don’t want to get cocky, but I think I’ve struck gold with this dessert. Picture a chocolate covered donut, but when you go in to take a bite, you get hit with the perfect balance of sweetness and acidity. You’re getting a sneak peak into what my vegan pineapple chocolate donuts taste like. The greatest thing about this dessert is that it literally takes minutes to prepare and before you know it, you’re sitting in the backyard with your feet kicked up eating one of these pineapple donuts. I bet you want to know how to make these now, eh? Let’s get into it!

We’re not messing around when it comes to dessert. It’s summer time, and in Canada that means it’s short and sweet so to take advantage the last place you want to be is stuck in the kitchen. To make these vegan pineapple chocolate donuts, start by melting your chocolate in the microwave with some coconut oil. While that’s melting, get your station ready. Have your sliced pineapple nearby, your bowl of melted chocolate, your tajin, fleur de sel and crushed toasted cashews.
