Ingredients

DONUTS:

2 eggs

1 cup almond flour

1/4 cup organic pumpkin

3 tbsp maple syrup

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

ICING: 

1/2 tbsp coconut butter

1/2 tbsp maple syrup

1/2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk    

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 350F 
  2. In a bowl, whisk the eggs. 
  3. Add in the rest of your donut ingredients. 
  4. Mix it all together with either a blender or immersion blender. You want to make sure that the mixture is well blended together! 
  5. Spray a donut pan with nonstick spray. Add the batter to the donut pans, filling up about 3/4 of the way. 
  6. Add to the oven and bake for 20-22 minutes 
  7. When you put the donuts in the oven, get the ingredients ready for your icing. 
  8. In a small, microwave safe bowl- mix together your coconut butter, almond milk, and maple syrup. It won’t mix super well but that’s okay. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, and if it’s not melted continue microwaving/stirring every 15 seconds until it is. 
  9. Set aside the icing after it’s mixed together while the donuts bake. 
  10. Remove the donuts from the oven, let them cool before adding the icing. 
  11. To add the icing, I dipped the donuts in the icing mixture. 
  12. Either eat then or store in the fridge so the icing hardens a bit! 
  13. Makes 5-6 donuts.
