Ingredients

  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup monk fruit sweetener (granulated)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup butter (unsalted, melted)
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup powdered sweetener
  • 1 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp butter (melted)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. 1

    --- To Make the Keto Donuts ---

  2. 2

    Grease a 6-hole donut pan with coconut oil.

  3. 3

    Whisk together the dry ingredients (almond flour, baking powder, monk fruit sweetener, and sea salt) in a medium bowl.

  4. 4

    Make a well in the center of the almond flour mixture and add the wet ingredients (vanilla extract, almond milk, and melted butter). Slowly add in the eggs one by one, stirring the mixture between each egg.

  5. 5

    As the batter is very wet, it is recommended to pour it into a measuring cup for easy pour. Then, pour the keto donut batter into the prepared 6-hole metal or silicone donut pan. Fill each donut mold as close to ¾ full as possible.

  6. 6

    Bake the keto donuts in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. The donuts are done when they are golden brown. Note: The center of the donuts may fill in, but that can be corrected once the donuts are cooled.

  7. 7

    Allow the donuts to cool for 5 minutes before removing from the molds. Then, remove the donuts from the donut pan. Allow the donuts to cool completely on a wire rack before adding the glaze (optional).

    --- Optional Glaze ---

  9. 9

    In a small bowl, combine powdered sweetener, heavy cream, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until the ingredients meld into a smooth, luscious glaze.

  10. 10

    Dip the cooled keto donuts into the glaze or artfully drizzle it over the tops with a piping bag.

  11. 11

    Give the glaze a few minutes to set on the donuts before diving in.
