Total: 45 minutes
Ingredients
For the Donut Balls
- 30 grams Almond Flour
- ⅓ teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- 2 tablespoon Butter
- 1 tablespoon Low Carb Sugar Substitute granulated
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- 1 Egg
- ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
For the Vanilla Glaze
- ⅓ cup Low Carb Sugar Substitute powdered
- ½ teaspoon Heavy Cream
- ⅓ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 tablespoon Water if needed
Instructions
To Make the Donut Balls
- Preheat the oven to 390°F/ 200°C and line a baking pan with baking paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour with the xanthan gum, salt, Erythritol, and baking powder.
- Melt the butter over low heat, add the vanilla, and fold in the flour mixture, mixing constantly to incorporate. Keep mixing with a spatula or wooden spoon for 2-3 minutes until a dough is formed, and you can easily shape it into a ball that holds its shape. Add a little water if needed, one tablespoon at a time.
- Transfer into a bowl and allow to reach room temperature before adding the egg and mixing it with an electric mixer until an elastic dough is formed.
- Cover with a tea towel and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
- Shape into bite-sized balls with your hands and place on the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes at 390°F/200°C then lower the temperature to 355°F/180°C and continue to bake for 5-10 minutes until they have risen into golden donut balls.
To Make the Vanilla Glaze
- Sift the powdered Erythritol in a mixing bowl, adding the heavy cream, vanilla extract, and water (if needed), gradually until you get a thick yet pourable glaze.
- Roll the donuts into the glaze, place in a serving plate and drizzle with any remaining glaze.
