You will also love these keto gingerbread cookies and keto vanilla donuts. You can sit back and relax while your house fills with the aroma of the most delicious gingerbread flavors. I will give you this tip though – this recipe is easiest if made in a silicone donut mold so you can just pop them right out of the mold once they cool. I used to use the metal donut pans but always had trouble getting my donuts out of the pan, it is so frustrating when you spend all the time to make some amazing donuts and they get ruined just trying to take them out of the pan! If you do not have a silicone donut mold, make sure you run a knife around the outer edges of your donuts before trying to take them out – it will make a world of difference!

Instructions To Make Gingerbread Donuts

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease a donut pan very well, set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together your almond flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, and salt.
In a medium mixing bowl mix together your eggs, butter, molasses, almond milk, and vanilla until well combined and whisk into your dry mixture until no clumps remain.
Fill each donut cavity about 3/4 full with your donut batter and bake in your preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, if you are using a larger 6 donut cavity pan then bake for 20-22 minutes. Allow your donuts to cool completely before taking out of donut pan.
Once your donuts are cool, make your glaze! Place your powdered sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Slowly add your almond milk by the tbs while mixing until you get a dippable texture.
Dip the top of your cooled donuts in your glaze and enjoy!
