Green Donuts

For a green Saint Patricks day treat, try these green donuts! They are healthy, delicious, and marvelously green. These are vegan, gluten-free, oil-free, and have all natural food colorings. These would also work as muffins if you don't have a donut pan. Also, the moringa can be left out or substituted for matcha. The moringa adds a bit of matcha flavor and makes them a bit for green.
