Ingredients

  • 1 gram scoop Cellucor Cinnamon Swirl whey protein
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 3 tbsp coconut flour
  • 2 tbsp Monkfruit sweetener
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp maple or vanilla extract
Maple Bourbon Glaze
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup (1 oz)
  • 1/2 tbsp bourbon (1/4 oz)
  • 1/4 cup Swerve Confectioner's Sugar

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Mix dry donut ingredients, then add wet ingredients and mix until combined.  Scoop donut batter into a piping bag, then cut the tip of the piping bag and evenly divide the batter into a 6 donut silicone baking pan.
  3. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.  Set on a wire rack to cool.
  4. As the donuts are cooling, bring the maple syrup to a boil over medium heat in a very small pan.  Add bourbon and continue to boil for 1 minute.  Remove from heat and whisk in confectioner's sugar.  (You can skip the boiling if you want to leave the alcohol in the bourbon intact.)
  5. Dip cooled donuts into glaze and allow donuts to rest on a wire rack until the glaze has set.  (The glaze will set more easily if you use traditional confectioner's sugar in place of the Swerve confectioner's sugar.)
