Ingredients

Glaze

Instructions

  • In a mini food processor or blender, blend the cottage cheese, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
    2 tablespoons full-fat cottage cheese, 1 large egg, 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract - sugar free
  • Add in the almond flour, pistachio butter, sweetener, and baking powder. Blend again until the batter is thick, smooth, and spoonable.
    1/2 cup almond flour, 2 tablespoons pistachio butter, 2 tablespoons Swerve (granulated), 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • Preheat your mini donut maker or grease a donut pan well. Spoon or pipe the batter into each mold and cook for 3–4 minutes, or bake in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15–18 minutes, until golden and set.
  • Melt the sugar-free chocolate chips with a bit of coconut oil (or pistachio butter) in a small bowl. Dip the tops of the cooled donuts or drizzle over for that perfect finish.
    2 tablespoons Lily's Dark Chocolate Chips, 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • Let the glaze firm up, then store the donuts in an airtight container at room temperature for 1–2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Let donuts cool completely before glazing to prevent the chocolate from melting off.
  • Use sugar-free pistachio butter and chocolate chips to keep this recipe keto and low-carb.
  • Skipping the glaze reduces net carbs by about 2g per serving.
  • Bake in a mini donut maker for ~3–4 minutes or in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15–18 minutes.
