  • 3 tablespoons coconut sugar (, sub with Lakanto golden monk fruit sweetener or brown sugar substitute of choice for low carb / ket)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups superfine blanched almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour

  • 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating
  • 6 tablespoons ghee OR sub with vegan butter or refined coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoon maple sugar OR coconut sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a 24-count mini muffin pan (OR a cake pop / donut hole pan if you have one) with avocado oil spray or coconut oil spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with a fork then add pumpkin puree, maple syrup, coconut sugar and vanilla. Whisk together until smooth and combined.
  • Stir in the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice and salt then mix until you get a smooth batter.
  • Use a spoon or fill a ziplock bag with the dough with the corner cut off to drop or pipe a tablespoon of batter into each each hole.Bake in preheated oven for 11-14 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the donut holes comes out clean.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile melt ghee in a heat-safe bowl in the microwave in 10 second increments or over a double boiler, until just melted. Remove from heat. In a separate bowl, mix together the maple sugar and cinnamon until well combined.
  • Take each donut hole and dunk it into the melted ghee until fully coated. Then dip into the cinnamon and sugar mixture, making sure to coat well. Repeat until all of the donut holes are coated, then serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
