Made with wholesome ingredients like almond flour, coconut sugar, and reduced apple cider, these donuts are naturally gluten-free, grain-free, and refined sugar-free.

Whether paired with a hot cup of tea or enjoyed on their own, these Paleo-friendly donuts will be your new favorite way to celebrate autumn.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan generously with coconut oil.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, simmer the apple cider until it reduces to about 1/4 cup. This should take about 10 minutes. Let it cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sea salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the cooled reduced apple cider, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Spoon the batter into the greased donut pan, filling each well about two-thirds 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.
Let the donuts cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Paleo-friendly treat!
