What is a Keto Donut Made Of?
Here are the ingredients you need to make this recipe. Reference the recipe card at the bottom for exact measurements and the notes below for substitution ideas.
Dry Ingredients
Use fine almond flour rather than almond meal for making these almond flour donuts. Coconut flour combined with almond flour creates the best flour mixture for making low-carb donuts.
Protein powder is not required for this recipe, but I like to add an unflavored protein powder to increase the protein without adding additional net carbs.
Monk fruit sweetener is a great sugar substitute that helps to mimic the taste of traditional donuts.
Baking powder helps the donuts to rise.
Wet Ingredients
Almond milk or coconut milk along with whole eggs help to bring the donut batter together becoming a binding agent that lends moisture.
Vanilla extract provides a warm flavor that helps these keto donuts to taste like the real thing.
Keto Glaze Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you’ll need for the keto glaze:
Melted butter, monk fruit sweetener, and vanilla extract create a creamy and delicious sweet glaze to top the low carb donuts.
Add a teaspoon or more of unsweetened cocoa powder to make a chocolate glaze.
How to Make This Keto Donut Recipe
Below are step-by-step instructions for how to cook this recipe. The recipe card at the bottom shows the exact cooking time and temperatures.

Step 2
Add wet ingredients and stir until well mixed.
Step 3
Spray the donut pan or silicone donut pan with coconut oil spray and fill about ⅔ of the way up.

- Freezer: You may freeze donuts for up to three months in a freezer-safe container.
- Tips for filling the pan: use a quart-sized Ziploc bag and cut off the tip to carefully pour the batter into the donut pan. Fill pan no more than ⅔ of the way up to make sure Keto donuts do not overflow the pan.
- Allow donuts to cool in the pan for at least five minutes before flipping them onto a cooling rack to cool fully.
- To ensure my donuts do not stick to the pan, I spray the donut pan very well with coconut oil spray. You can also run a butter knife around the perimeter of the donuts and the donut hole section to gently loosen the donuts prior to removing.
