Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl until well incorporated.
  • Add the wet ingredients into the same bowl and stir until well combined.
  • Spoon or pipe the batter into a donut pan.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into donut comes out clean.
  • While baking, prepare the glaze
  • Heat almond butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds until warm
  • Add honey to the heated almond butter
  • Add coconut oil, 1 Tbsp at a time, until the consistency is drippy and glaze-like
  • When the donuts are done baking, use a fork or spoon to lift the donuts out of the pan.
  • Spoon the almond butter glaze onto the tops of the donuts and place on a cooling rack until the glaze sets*

Notes

*the glaze won't set like regular glaze made of powdered sugar, but it should stop dripping if you put it aside to let it cool. You can also place them in the fridge to speed up the setting process
