Doughnut cravings are legit. I love eating doughnuts with my morning coffee. Speaking of doughnuts, did you know you can spell it doughnut or donut. Donut is the Americanize version. Either way, they are delicious but filled with tons of fat and carbs. I don’t mind the fat but I don’t want the carbs!!
Luckily I came up with a fabulous keto donut recipe that is only 0.7 g carbs per bite! These donut bites are buttery, soft and tastes like a churro since they are dusted with cinnamon and monkfruit. Now you can satisfy your doughnut cravings with these churro bites!

How many donut holes aren1 serving?
one donut hole is one serving. So 0.7g net carbs per donut bite
If you’re going to call 1 donut hole a serving, then I’d say 4 servings with a cup of coffee (if not still fasting) fits nicely into a keto lifestyle. Great recipe. ?
I make these for my daughter-in-law Melissa?. She loves them. Me too of course but happy wife makes for a happy son?
can these be deep fried?
Yes! Look at my glazed donut recipe to see how to fry them.
Could you use an air fryer?
I haven’t tried these in an air fryer yet, but if you do, let me know how they turn out!
I did on 370 for 6 minutes and they came out great!
Can we substitute butter with coconut oil?
I haven’t tried that yet, but I think it would work.
Just tried today. Quick question…are the suppose to feel mushy in the middle?
They will firm up when the sit out. You could try frying them longer or making them smaller too.
Just made these and let me say they’re to die for!! I didn’t have xanthan gum so I just used a 1:1 ratio of cornstarch and they came out fine. Thanks for the awesome recipe!:)
I’d really like to try this, it seems so easy and the ingredients are super simple—except for protein powder and sour cream, neither of which we have (or ever had). Since the sour cream is there to balance out the protein powder, can I get away with removing both ingredients?
You can substitute low carb yogurt for the sour cream. The sour cream helps to balance the flavor of the donut to give it an authentic flavor. The protein powder works to puff up the donuts as they cook. You might be able to substitute with coconut flour but the texture won’t 100% be the same.
