Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups blanched almond flour
- 0.5 cup erythritol sweetener
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 3 whole large eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup shelled unsalted pistachios
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with non-stick spray or coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, erythritol sweetener, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a smooth batter forms.
Chop the pistachios into small pieces and fold them into the batter, ensuring even distribution.
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then gently remove them and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Garnish the cooled donuts with additional crushed pistachios on top for extra crunch and presentation.
