In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, psyllium husk powder, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly and add the almond milk and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in a microwave. Let it cool slightly, then add it to the wet ingredients and whisk together.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until a thick, dough-like consistency forms. The mixture should be pliable but not sticky. If the dough is too wet, you can add a little more almond flour.
Divide the dough into 8 equal parts. Roll each portion into a ball, then use your finger to create a hole in the center, forming a donut shape.
Heat the coconut oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat. The oil should reach about 350°F (175°C) for ideal frying.
Carefully place the donuts in the hot oil. Fry them in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Fry each donut for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they turn a golden brown.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the donuts from the oil. Let them drain on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Optional: Once cooled, you can sprinkle additional erythritol on top for sweetening or drizzle with a keto-friendly glaze of your choice.
Serve warm and enjoy your chewy, keto-friendly mochi donuts!
