The 16 Lower Sugar Donuts at Dunkin\u2019<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Sugared Donut – 5g of Sugar<\/strong> *discontinued*<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ironically the only Dunkin\u2019 donut with the word “sugar<\/em>” in the name is the lowest in terms of sugar content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was surprised by the sugar content of this one. I guess it is because it is mainly made up of dough – the lack of any filling, flavoring, or frosting gives the sugared donut the crown of the lowest sugar option donut at Dunkin\u2019. A mere 5 grams of sugar is impressive for a donut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a simple classic donut – but perfect for dipping in your coffee. Especially once you know the sugar content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*UPDATE – A READER RECENTLY REACHED OUT TO KINDLY LET US KNOW THAT THE SUGARED DONUT AT DUNKIIN HAS SADLY BEEN DISCONTINUED. WE REACHED OUT TO DUNKIN FOR CONFIRMATION AND THEY CONFIRMED IT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED. IF YOU WANT TO SEE THIS LOWER-SUGAR DONUT ON THE MENU AGAIN MAKE SURE TO REACH OUT TO YOUR LOCAL DUNKIN STORE TO LET THEM KNOW! FINGERS CROSSED THE SUGARED DONUT MAKES A RETURN TO THE MENU SOON.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Lemon Donut – 10g of Sugar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you are looking for a tart and refreshing lower sugar donut at Dunkin\u2019 then the lemon it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just make sure to note that the lemon donut is not the same as the glazed lemon donut which has almost double the amount of sugar as the regular lemon at 19g<\/strong>. The increase in sugar content is due to all that sugar glaze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lemon stick at Dunkin\u2019 packs an even heftier punch in the sugar department at 24 grams<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you love a lemon donut but are watching your sugar intake the lemon donut at Dunkin\u2019 is the one for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Apple n Spice – 10g of Sugar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

All the Fall flavor you could wish for in a donut. If apple-flavored donuts are what you crave but you want a lower sugar option then definitely go for the apple n spice donut at Dunkin\u2019. The other apple-flavored donuts at Dunkin\u2019 (French Apple, Apple Fritter, Apple Crumb, Apple Stick, and Apple Streusel) range from 17 grams to 24 grams<\/strong> in sugar content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Old Fashioned – 10g of Sugar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The old-fashioned is a simple no-frills donut. This classic ring-shaped donut clocks in at just 10 grams of sugar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. French Cruller – 10g of Sugar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another Dunkin\u2019 donut with just 10 grams of sugar. This one is super easy to spot as it is pin-wheeled shaped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are tempted to go for the chocolate-dipped French Cruller (your thought processed being “how much extra sugar can a bit of chocolate dip add?\u201d) – just be aware the chocolate dip doubles the sugar content to 20 grams<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Bavarian Kreme Donut – 11g of Sugar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If your donut craving comes in the form of a donut with a creamy custardy center, then the Bavarian Kreme donut at Dunkin\u2019 is the one for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bavarian Kreme donut doesn’t have the chocolate frosted top (like the Boston Kreme donut) which keeps the sugar content down. Dunkin\u2019s Boston Kreme donut in comparison contains 18 grams of sugar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Guava – 12g of Sugar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The only guava-flavored donut on the Dunkin\u2019 menu has a relatively low sugar content of 12 grams<\/strong>. This is lower than a lot of the other donuts on the menu as the guava itself doesn’t pack a huge amount in the sugar department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a lower sugar tropical fruit flavor donut is what you are heading to Dunkin for – the guava donut it is then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Plain Stick – 13g of Sugar<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Admittedly this donut sounds the least exciting. I mean plain stick doesn’t exactly sound enticing right? Well, this plain Stick has a few things going for it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
