Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan with coconut oil.
In a medium bowl, mix almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together eggs, applesauce, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Stir in the lemon zest and ensure the batter is well mixed.
Spoon the batter into the greased donut pan, filling each cavity about halfway. Make sure the batter is spread evenly.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean.
While donuts are baking, prepare the strawberry chia jam by combining chopped strawberries and chia seeds in a saucepan over medium heat.
Cook the strawberries, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until they start to break down and release their juices.
Mash the strawberries with a fork or potato masher, then remove the saucepan from heat and let the jam thicken as it cools.
Once the donuts are finished baking, let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Using a piping bag or small spoon, fill each donut with a small amount of the homemade strawberry chia jam.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
