Ingredients
  

  • 4 Large Eggs
  • 1/4 Cup Water
  • 1/4 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 1 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 Cup Vanilla Mölk
  • 1 1/2 Cups Blanched Almond Flour
  • 1/2 Cup Monkfruit/Erythritol Blend
  • 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/4 Tsp Salt

For the Glaze

  • 1/2 Cup Powdered Erythritol Sweetener Or your favorite powdered sweetener
  • 1/4 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Teaspoon Sugar Free Maple Syrup

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325 F and heavily grease one 12 cavity donut pan.
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl mix together the protein powder, almond flour, sweetener, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
  • Next, add the cream, eggs, vanilla, and water and mix again until well combined. Whip the batter for a couple of minutes, by hand or with mix well with a stand mixer, until you have a smooth slightly airy batter.
  • Spoon or pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full. Bake for 18-24 minutes or until set and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely before turning them out on a wire rack.

To Make the Glaze

  • While the donuts are cooling whisk together your sweetener, cream, vanilla, and syrup until smooth.
    (If your glaze is too thick add more cream a teaspoon at a time, until the desired consistency has been achieved)
  • Dip the tops of each donut into the glaze and place on a wire rack until set.
