• Bonne Maman Hazelnut & Cocoa Spread: The star ingredient that adds a deliciously creamy texture and nutty taste.
• All-Purpose Flour: You can also use a gluten-free option to accommodate dietary preferences.
• Baking Powder: Helps the donuts rise and become light and airy.
• Cocoa Powder: Make sure to use a high-quality, unsweetened cocoa powder for the best flavour.
• Roasted Hazelnuts: Roasted hazelnuts taste best, as unroasted ones can have a bitter flavour.

Pro Tips: I like using silicon donut molds as they are easier to remove the donuts from the pan. You can also use metal donut molds if you have on hand. I found mine on Amazon.
