Baked Paleo Vanilla Donuts
- Prep Time: 15 mins
- Cook Time: 12 mins
- Total Time: 27 mins
- Yield: 6 standard donuts 1x
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil (measure after melting)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 2 eggs, whites and yolks separated
Instructions
- Set oven to 350 degrees.
- Whisk melted coconut oil, maple syrup, coconut flour, and almond flour in a medium size bowl.
- Add the vanilla extract and apple cider vinegar, and continue to whisk ingredients together.
- Add baking soda and whisk until evenly blended.
- Stir in egg yolks, gently using a fork if mixture becomes too thick for a whisk.
- In separate bowl, beat egg whites at a medium to high speed until they form peaks, approximately 3 minutes.
- Fold egg whites into donut mixture, using a spatula, if necessary.
- Grease donut pan and pour mixture into cavities.
- Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 12 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
- Donuts will come out with a texture that looks a little “uneven” on the top. If you want yours to be as smooth as possible on the top, press batter down into donut cavities using the rounded side of a tablespoon.
- For best results, eat within 24 hours.
Notes
If you would like to make almond-flavored donuts, replace 1 tsp vanilla extract with approximately 3/4 tsp almond extract.
