In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk together until well incorporated.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add the melted butter, vanilla extract, and heavy cream, and whisk until smooth.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Let the dough rest for about 5 minutes to allow the flours to absorb the moisture.
Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then press down gently to flatten slightly. Using your thumb or a small cutter, make a hole in the center of each dough ball to form a donut shape.
Heat avocado oil in a deep pot over medium heat to about 325°F (170°C).
Carefully add the donuts in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry each donut for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the donuts from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Allow the donuts to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them plain or dusted with extra erythritol and cinnamon if desired.
