PREPRATION TIME:
- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Cook Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 20 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup almond flour 100g, ground almonds work as well
- ⅓ cup unsalted butter 75g, melted
- ¼ cup granulated sweetener 50g
- 4 eggs medium, or 3 large
- 2 tablespoon heavy cream 30ml
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
- ¼ cup granulated sweetener 50g, to roll the donuts in. Option to add ½ teaspoon cinnamon
INSTRUCTIONS:
-
Preheat the oven to 175 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit. Brush the inside of the silicone donut pan with melted butter or grease with cooking spray.
-
Blend the melted butter, cream and sweetener in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer or in a food processor until smooth.
-
Add the eggs and vanilla extract and blend until combined. Then, add the almond flour and baking powder. Continue blending until a smooth batter forms.
-
Spoon the batter into the well-greased donut pan. Take care not to overfill the donut moulds. The batter will rise as it bakes.
-
Bake for 15 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove the donuts from the oven and let them cool completely before removing them from the pan.
-
Put granulated sweetener in a small, shallow bowl. Option to add cinnamon and stir to combine. Press each donut into the sweetener to coat on both sides.
NOTES:
1g net carbs per donut. Makes 14 mini donuts (6 cm diameter, weight: 20-24g).
If you prefer a glaze, mix 2 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon heavy cream and 2 tablespoons powdered sweetener with a ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract.
You can also melt 85-90% dark chocolate with 1 teaspoon of coconut oil for a chocolate glaze!
This recipe makes 6-7 regular size donuts in a standard donut pan. Increase the oven time by around 5 minutes.
Tip: Let the donuts cool COMPLETELY before removing them from the pan. They firm up as they cool down.
