How to Prepare Raw Chocolate Lemon Doughnuts [Vegan]

In a bowl, mix your dry ingredients thoroughly, then pour in the applesauce, syrup and carrots, and mix until combined.
Split your dough into 9 then roll the bits into balls. Place on a lined baking tray and press down slightly with your hands. Use whatever object you have on hand to cut out a doughnut hole and set that aside on another plate. Repeat with all nine and use leftover doughnut holes.
Place in the freezer for 20 minutes while you prepare your topping.
Place all your ingredients (except the granola) in a food processor and blend until smooth.
Spread the topping evenly over the doughnuts with a small knife or the back of a teaspoon, it will resemble the consistency of hummus.
Melt your chocolate/carob chunks and drizzle them on top, then quickly sprinkle on some of the granola before it hardens.
Store in freezer and defrost for 5 or so minutes before serving.
