Keto Double Chocolate Doughnuts

The ultimate dessert: DOUGHNUTS. These mini doughnuts are as delicious as they are cute! They are sweet, chewy, and super chocolately. While you may be tempted, you must wait until the doughnuts are fully cool before dipping them in the chocolate mixture. If you don’t, the chocolate will seep into the doughnut and melt down the sides. You can also put the doughnuts directly into the fridge after dipping them in chocolate to help them set faster. Pyure sweetener was used for these, but feel free to use your favorite sugar-free sweetener. Taste the mixture before adding the egg and add additional sweetener accordingly.

    Spoon the batter into a small ziploc bag and cut off a corner with a scissor. Grease a mini-donut pan and pipe the batter into the cavities of the pan. The batter should only fill the cavities until they’re about ⅔ full.

    After the doughnuts have finished baking, remove the pan from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before taking the doughnuts from the molds.

    Remove the doughnuts from their mold and allow them to completely cool on a cooling rack.
    Step 8
  • Step 9

    Dip the doughnuts in the chocolate mixture and place on a piece of parchment or cooling rack. If the chocolate starts to seep into the doughnut, carefully spoon leftover chocolate on top. Enjoy or a bit your favorite low-carb sprinkles for color.

      What the substitute for applesauce?

      • Kshort23

        Kshort23 4 years ago

        Maybe greek yogurt or sour cream, to my understanding of the recipe the apple sauce is supposed to add moisture so i think greek yogurt or sour cream will be a great alternative .

      I didn’t follow the recipe correctly and added the melted cocoa sauce into the mixture and made the batter more like a cake then a doughnut so it makes an awesome cake pop and good bite size. So I baked it in my cake pop oven turned out pretty good it really does hit the spot. It was a perfectly moist & so yummy & chocolaty

          Made this recipe. It was pretty good and hit that sweet bread spot we ketoers miss. Some suggestions: 1. Double both recipes. I did and it made the right amount. 2. The applesauce isn't in the directions so I added it to the mix, it will come out too dry without it. 3. I added two packets of stevia to the chocolate glaze, without sweetener it is bitter due to the 85% dark chocolate.

            Thanks for the suggestions and note re: applesauce - it's been added to the directions.

          These were way too dry. Needs more liquid in batter. Maybe 1/2 tlbs. of coconut oil or even extra virgin olive oil. Thoughts or suggestions anyone?

            Ive had a tbsp of heavy cream sometimes to thin out the batter and add moisture! It usually helps !

            I've made this recipe a variety of times w/o them being too dry. You could try to bake them for a little less time - oven temperature can sometimes vary. You are welcome to try a teaspoon more butter or add a tablespoon of applesauce or milk of your choice to add moisture.
