I also can’t get enough of these Healthy Baked Gluten Free Sugar Free Keto Cinnamon Roll Donuts or this Sugar Free Low Carb Vanilla Bean Creme Brulee. I mean, let’s be real though – as long as it is dessert I am obsessed! But if you don’t currently have a donut pan, run – don’t walk to buy one right now!

Instructions To Keto Make Cinnamon Sugar Donuts

  1. First things first, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease your donut pan very well. I used a mini donut pan for this recipe. It is important to grease your pan well to ensure that your donuts come out easily and don’t break.
  2. In a large mixing bowl you will whisk together all of your dry ingredients (almond flour, 1/3 cup sweetener, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt).
  3. Next, in a medium mixing bowl you are going to whisk together all of your wet ingredients (melted butter, almond milk, vanilla extract, and eggs).
  4. Then, pour your wet mixture into your dry mixture and stir until well incorporated – you should have no clumps left. Transfer your batter into your donut pan. Each cavity should be 3/4 full. I usually use a regular spoon to get the mixture into the cavity then smooth it with the back of my spoon.
  5. Bake in your preheated oven for 16-18 minutes or until golden brown. If you are using a regular size donut pan you will need to bake for a couple minutes longer. Once out of the oven, let cool COMPLETLEY before removing from your donut pan.
  6. Let’s make our cinnamon sugar topping, in a bowl mix together your monk fruit and cinnamon until well incorporated and melt your butter in a separate bowl.
  7. Once your donuts have completely cooled, removed them from your pan. I find the easiest way to remove them is using a butter knife to get underneath them and loosen then before pulling them out. Dip in your melted butter then cover in your cinnamon sugar mixture and enjoy!

Frequently Asked Questions About Cinnamon Sugar Donuts

What kind of a donut pan is best?

I recently invested in a silicone donut pan and I cannot recommend it enough! The metal ones definitely work, but sometimes the donut gets ruined just trying to get it out of the pan. So, in my opinion a silicone donut pan is the best because you can just pop the donuts right out.

What should I do if I don’t want to dip my donuts in butter?

No problem! I find they lose just a little bit of that carnival taste but sometimes you don’t want all that butter – fair enough! Before dipping your donut into your cinnamon sugar just nuke it in the microwave to heat it up just for a few seconds and toss the warm donut in your cinnamon sugar mix. The heat will make it stick.

How do I store baked donuts?

You can store them in an airtight container on your countertop.
