Servings: 9 donuts
Ingredients
For the donuts
- 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup brown rice flour
- 3/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- 1/3 cup coconut oil melted
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon all spice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 cup zero calorie sugar like Monkruit or Truvia, or sugar of choice
- 1 egg white room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
For the glaze
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar for icing
- Cinnamon for sprinkling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray a donut pan with nonstick cooking oil.
- In a small bowl, combine pumpkin puree, egg white, coconut oil, vanilla extract and milk.
- Be sure egg white is room temperature, if it is too cold it will harden with the coconut oil.
- In a separate bowl combine flour, salt and spices. Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients to combine.
- Fill donut cavities with batter to the top of cavity. You will need to press the dough into the cavity a bit and smooth with you fingers. Coconut flour will bake the way you place it so be sure it is level and even in the pan.
- Bake donuts 13-15 minutes at 350 F. Remove donuts from oven, and let them sit for 15 minutes then the flip pan upside down on a baking rack so the donuts will fall out right side up.
- While the remaining batch is cooking, combine the ingredients for the glaze in a bowl. Dip each fully cooled donut into glaze and place on baking rack to harden.
- Sprinkle the donuts with a pinch of cinnamon each. Store in the refrigerator up to a week.
