These donuts are WARM, DELICIOUS, and each only 105 Calories (that's including the butter/Swerve sprinkle at the end), have 6 grams of protein, 19 reparation amino acids, healthy/healing saturated fats, and ½ a daily serving of collagen, and less than 1g of sugar per donut!
2tbspGrassfed Butter (melted, and slightly cooled)
3/4cupSuper Fine Blanched Almond Flour

1tspPumpkin Spice
1/2tspCinnamon

Top it Off
2tbspGrassfed Butter (melted)
1-2tbspGranulated or Powdered Swerve
1tspPumpkin Pie Spice
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray silicone donut pan with coconut oil.
With an electric mixer on a low setting mix eggs, vanilla, pumpkin puree, almond milk, and butter for about 30 seconds, set aside.
In a separate medium bowl, add the CB Supplements Collagen, almond flour, xanthan gum, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt, then stir together.
Slowly fold in the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients & until just combined (if you whisk to much they will deflate)
Using a spoon or a piping bag, distribute the batter evenly amongst the 12 cavities. (filling 3/4 full).
Bake 21-23 minutes or until golden brown.
Remove from the oven and set aside for at least 5 minutes to cool and settle. Then gently pop donuts out from the bottom. Flip for better presentation.
Topper
Melt butter for 15 seconds in microwave, set aside.
Mix Swerve and pumpkin pie spice in a small bowl.
Once cooled, dunk or drizzle each donut with butter and then sprinkle or roll donut in Swerve/Spice mixture.
Notes
I recommend a 12-donut silicone baking pan, as it helps the donuts bake evenly, stick less, and pop out in better shape than a tin pan.
Elevation matters in baking, so if your donuts are too ‘sticky’, try adding 1-2 Tbsp of Almond flour to the batter.
Be sure to look for FINE Blanched Almond Flour. There are a lot variations. The finer the flour the lighter and more delicate the donuts will be.
