Paleo Chocolate Glazed Doughnut!

 Paleo Chocolate Glazed DoughnutsOk doughnut fans! Here's a healthy recipe I just found! Now where can I find a doughnut pan?  And who says healthy has to taste bad? These look absolutely yummy!!!  I think I'm on a sweet roll today! 

Recipe from Erin Walker.  I found her Coffee Cake recipe in Paleo Magazine Readers Favorites Cookbook!  She's got some yummy and healthy delights on her blog.  Check her stuff out at - http://www.littleekitchen.blogspot.com/

Last Friday was National Doughnut Day!  I kept seeing different paleo doughnut recipes that were posted on Facebook and I got inspired to try my own recipe.  I brought the doughnuts to my school's end of the year party and everyone loved them!!  I am a sucker for cinnamon sugar, but the chocolate glaze was a HUGE hit!!


Ingredients:

1 cup almond flour
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp cup coconut flour
2 eggs
1 heaping tsp vanilla
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp almond milk/coconut milk (original flavor)
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
olive oil spray
Doughnut pan

Preheat oven to 350

Mix all wet ingredients in a small bowl (eggs, vanilla, honey, water, milk)

Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl (almond flour, coconut flour, salt, baking soda)

Combine wet ingredients and dry ingredients

Stir until lump free

Grease a doughnut pan with olive oil spray

Spoon the batter into a large plastic bag and cut the tip (to make a pastry bag)

Squeeze the batter from the bag in a neat circle, into the doughnut pan

Bake for 18 minutes or until the top and edges are brown.
                                  
Chocolate Glaze:

1/2 bag enjoy life chocolate chips (melted)
2 tbsp coconut oil (melted)
Mix ingredients together in a small bowl and dip the top of the cooled doughnuts into the glaze.

Cinnamon Sugar:

1/4 cup coconut palm sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
1/2 cup coconut oil (melted)
Mix the coconut palm sugar and cinnamon on a small plate
Pour the melted coconut oil onto a small plate

Dip the top of the cooled doughnuts into the oil and then into the cinnamon sugar mixture.

ENJOY!!!
