Keto Donuts
yield: 12 SERVINGS
prep time: 10 MINUTES
cook time: 15 MINUTES
total time: 25 MINUTES
Ingredients
Donut batter:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup monkfruit sweetener (we used Lakanto Golden)
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or white vinegar
- 1/4 cup almond milk
- 2 teaspoons butter vanilla extract
Cinnamon Sugar Donut Topping:
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons keto granular sweetener
Icing:
- 1/3 cup powdered monkfruit sweetener (we used Lakanto)
- 2 tablespoon heavy whipping cream (or almond milk for dairy-free version)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa (optional, for chocolate icing)
Directions
1
To make the donuts:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2
In a large bowl, add almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix dry ingredients until they're all combined.
3
In a separate large bowl, add eggs, monk fruit sweetener, apple cider vinegar, almond milk, and extract. Mix with an electric mixer for 1 minute. Add in dry ingredients and mix until all ingredients are combined.
4
Add donut batter to a Ziploc bag. Cut about 1/2" off the corner to use as a piping bag. Pipe the donut batter into the donut molds 3/4 the way to the top. Place filled molds on a flat baking sheet for better stability when inserting and removing molds from the oven.
5
Bake in preheated oven for 13-15 minutes, until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before applying the icing.
6
To make icing:
Slowly add ingredients to a bowl and whisk until you get a thick creamy texture. Let the icing set for a few minutes to thicken before adding to donuts. Dip donut tops into the icing and set on arack to let the icing dry. Top with sugar-free sprinkles (if desired) before the icing sets.
7
To make sugared donuts:
Dip donuts into melted butter & sprinkle granular monk fruit sweetener and cinnamon over the donuts.
8
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Craving donuts since you’ve gone keto? Our keto donuts recipe will have your sweet tooth begging for more!
Missing donuts since you’ve gone keto?
I’ve been on the hunt for a donut replacement that’s keto-friendly with no sugar added. Friends, I think I’ve found the answer to your donut-loving cravings. Time to indulge in the best keto cake donut recipe!
This yummy keto donut recipe clocks in at just 2 net carbs per donut! WOOHOO! It’s the perfect cake donut that you can make to have on hand for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. I love that the ingredients are simple and the taste is a home run!
See how easy it is to make these keto donuts by watching the video below.
*Important note: In the video above, we use 4 – 1/2 cup scoops of almond flour to get the 2 cups total the recipe calls for.
Here are a few recipe tips to keep in mind when making keto donuts:
- After searching for the best donut molds, I came across these silicone molds and purchased them after reading all the amazing reviews on Amazon. The donuts popped right out without having to grease the sides!
- If you are craving chocolate, you can add 2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa to your dry ingredients to make a delicious chocolate cake keto donut.
- I’m a big fan of usingLakanto Powdered Monk Fruit Sweetener. I used it for the frosting and feel like it doesn’t have a strong cooling aftertaste like some other keto sweeteners. You can grab it directly from Lakanto and save 15% off your order when you use promo code HIP2KETO at checkout! Note that any kind of powdered keto sweetener will work.
- If you have kiddos who love sprinkled donuts (or if you love sprinkles too!), Amazon has several different options available.
- If you can’t find butter vanilla extract, you can use 1 teaspoon of vanilla and 1 teaspoon of butter extract, or just use 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
