Sweet Potato Paleo Mini Doughnuts

Thursday, April 11, 2013

If BabyCakes was my blog sponsor, I'd probably have to make doughnuts every day! But that wouldn't be hard.
Aren't these beautiful? They are dark because of the almond flour, I think. I made pancakes with almond flour and they were also darker after frying. Here is the delicious recipe:

Sweet Potato Paleo Doughnuts
Recipe inspiration: Pure and Simple

Doughnuts
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/3 cup cooked sweet potato (put it in the microwave for 5-6 minutes)
  • 1/3 cup full-fat canned coconut milk

  • 2 tbs coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/2 tbsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tbsp all spice
 Steps:
  1. Preheat your BabyCakes
  2. Add eggs, sweet potato, milk, honey, oil, and vanilla in food processor or blender (I used my awesome Ninja!) and blend
  3. Add the rest of the ingredients into the blender and mix until smooth
  4. Put about 2 tsp batter into each doughnut slot and cook for 4-7 minutes or until brown

Maple Vanilla Frosting
