Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cups coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup coconut oil, melted
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 0.5 cups powdered coconut sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan with coconut oil.
In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted coconut oil, honey, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth and well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while gently stirring until a thick batter forms.
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each mold about three-quarters full. Use a small spatula or your fingers to smooth each donut's surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the donuts are cooling, prepare the powdered coconut sugar by blitzing regular coconut sugar in a blender or spice grinder until it reaches a fine powder consistency.
Once the donuts are cool, lightly dust them with the powdered coconut sugar, ensuring an even coating.
Enjoy these delicious Paleo Powdered Sugar Donuts as a delightful and guilt-free treat!
