Prep Time10 mins

Total Time30 mins
Servings: 6 donuts
Ingredients
Donut Ingredients:
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ¾ cup almond flour
- 2 teaspoons xanthan gum optional but recommended
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoons coconut sugar
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- ¼ cup coconut oil
- 4 eggs
- ½ cup apple cider
Topping Ingredients:
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- ½ cup apple cider
Instructions
For the Donuts:
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl with a whisk.
- Add rest of ingredients to the dry ingredient bowl and whisk until it becomes a sticky, thick dough.
- Use a piping bag or a ziplock bag with a corner sniped to pipe the dough into a greased donut pan, filling the entire donut cavity.
- With the back of a spoon, smooth out the dough in the pan; it will bake in the exact form it is piped. Bake for 20 minutes.
For the Topping:
- Mix together the sugar and cinnamon with a whisk.
- Pour the apple cider in a shallow bowl.
- Dunk each COOLED donut quickly into the apple cider, so it doesn't get saturated, but slightly wet on the outside.
- Put directly into the cinnamon sugar mixture and toss around to both sides of the donut.
- Transfer to plate and enjoy!

Hi :) I love love your Instagram site first of all!
And today I made these Paleo apple cider donuts, which we absolutely loved!
They were soft on the inside, (and all over actually). So my hubby put his in the toaster oven so the top can get slightly crunchy and toasty, it was amazing! Perfect fall paleo treat!
Next week I’ll try the Paleo double chocolate donuts! :)
Thanks so much!glad you enjoyed them!
