How to Make Low Carb Donuts
Step 1: Prep the Basics
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Beat the eggs in a medium bowl.
Add melted butter, granulated sweetener, vanilla extract, almond milk and baking powder. Stir until combined.
Add almond flour and coconut flour. Gently stir to combine.
Grease each donut mold with abundant butter. Fill each mould to 3/4 of its capacity.
Step 2: Bake It!
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until donuts are golden brown on the surface.
Let them cool completely before transferring. When removing from the mold, be careful not to break the donuts. A helpful trick is to use a round knife to lift the donut, moving it all around the mould.
Step 3: Prep the Glaze
Place all glazes ingredients in a small saucepan over the stove in low heat. Stir until ingredients are melted, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 4: Finish the low carb donuts
Take each donut from the flat side and dip it into the glaze. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Recipe Tips
