Ingredients:

  • For the Donut Holes:
    • 1 cup water
    • ⅔ cup almond flour
    • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
    • 4 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
    • 3 tablespoons erythritol
    • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
    • 1 tablespoon ground psyllium husk
    • 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • Pinch of sea salt
  • For the Coating:
    • 2-3 tablespoons melted butter
    • ⅓ cup granulated erythritol
    • 3 tablespoons powdered erythritol
    • 2-3 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, psyllium husk, and xanthan gum.
  3. In a saucepan, heat water over medium-low heat. Add oil, erythritol, and salt, whisking until combined.
  4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring constantly until a sticky dough forms. Let it cool slightly.
  5. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until you have an elastic dough. Let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
  6. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the baking sheet, leaving space between them.
  7. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F (180°C) and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
  8. Let the donut holes cool slightly.
  9. In separate bowls, mix the granulated erythritol with cinnamon and the powdered erythritol.
  10. Brush the donut holes with melted butter and roll them first in the powdered erythritol, then in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  11. Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, you can use melted coconut oil instead of avocado oil or olive oil.
  • If the dough is too sticky, dust your hands and the dough with a little almond flour.
  • You can freeze the donut holes for up to 3 months. Flash freeze them individually on a baking sheet for a few hours before transferring them to a freezer-safe container.

These keto donut holes are sure to become a new favorite! Enjoy!
