Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup / 100g almond flour (or ground almonds)
  • 40 g / 1.4 oz unsweetened chocolate (melted (3 tbsp))
  • 40 g / 1.4 oz butter, very soft (3 tbsp)
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/3 cup / 55 g powdered sweetener
  • 4 tbsp heavy / double cream
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 60 g / 2.1 oz unsweetened chocolate
  • 8 drops stevia (or 2 tsp powdered erythritol)

Instruction

  • Preheat your oven to 175 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit
  • In a bowl or a food processor, blend the very soft butter, cream and sweetener. Then add the eggs and vanilla and mix until well-combined. Last, add the melted unsweetened chocolate, cocoa powder, almond flour and baking powder. Blend until you have a smooth batter. 
  • Spoon batter into a well-greased donut pan.  I used a silicone mini donut pan. Make sure you do not overfill and lose that all-important hole!
  • Bake 13-15 minutes or until done.
  • Melt the chocolate in a water-bath (place a smaller bowl with the chocolate inside a larger bowl which you have filled with boiling water. The heat will gently melt the chocolate). Add stevia to achieve the desired sweetness. Wait until it has cooled down a little.
  • Dip the cooled donuts into the chocolate (double-dip if you want a thicker glaze) and place in the fridge until the chocolate coating has set.
