Whether paired with a cup of coffee or enjoyed solo, these pistachio donuts are truly a bakery-worthy creation from your own oven!
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Stir in the finely ground pistachios until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk and add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, almond milk, and melted coconut oil. Mix well.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined and a thick batter forms.
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each well about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean.
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then remove them and place on a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the glaze, mix the powdered sugar with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Add more water if necessary to reach the desired consistency.
Dip each cooled donut into the glaze and sprinkle with chopped pistachios.
Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving.
