Ingredients
For the Doughnuts:
- 2 medium eggs (100g)
- 40g erythritol (U.S. option HERE)
- ½ tsp pure stevia powder (U.S. option HERE)
- 80g crème fraîche
- 2 tsp vanilla extract (U.S. option HERE)
- 30g high-oleic cold pressed sunflower oil (U.S. option HERE), or MCT oil (U.S. option HERE)
- 1 tsp ACV (U.S. option HERE)
- 30g whey protein isolate (U.S. alternative HERE)
- 10g psyllium husk powder (U.S. option HERE)
- 30g ultra fine almond flour (U.S. option HERE)
- 2 tsp baking powder (sifted)
- ½ tsp cinnamon powder
For the Cinnamon ‘Sugar’ coating:
- 15g coconut oil (U.S. option HERE)
- 20g allulose (UK option HERE)
- 20g erythritol
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- pre-heat oven to 150°C fan (170°C static).
- whisk eggs until pale and foamy, add sweeteners and liquid ingredients, whisking again to incorporate homogeneously.
- mix dry ingredients and combine.
- fill 6-holes silicone doughnut mould (U.S. option HERE) right up to the top.
- bake for 18-20 mins until golden-brown, then open oven door fully and leave doughnuts in situ for 5 minutes.
- meanwhile, mix allulose, erythritol and cinnamon in a large bowl.
- take the mould out of the oven and wait until the doughnuts are completely cool.
- unmould and brush with melted coconut oil before coating them in the cinnamon 'sugar’.
Notes
You can replace crème fraîche with sour cream.
If you decide to swap the high-oleic sunflower oil for coconut oil, or butter, or strong flavoured seed oil, you will not get the same spongy and well-risen doughnuts. Best alternative is MCT oil.
For the cinnamon coating, I combine two sweeteners: allulose provides the sweetness without after taste and erythritol provides the ‘crystals’. This combination makes the ‘cooling’ effect of erythritol virtually undetectable. You can, of course, use whichever alternative suits you best.
