Keto Donut Recipe: Low Carb Double Chocolate Baked –
Low Carb Double Chocolate Baked Keto Donut Recipe (Paleo, Dairy Free, Gluten Free)
I made these Paleo Double Chocolate Baked Donut Recipe on a whim. I got this bagel/donut pan a while back and I have been obsessed with making round baked goods in it. As you can tell by my other bagel post that was very popular. These were super easy and a crowd pleaser at my essential oils 101 class that I taught yesterday. The kids and parents loved these healthy grain free baked donuts. I would fry them in a healthy fat but not sure if they would hold up without the starch so into the oven they went.
I made a yummy and easy glaze that will have your family licking their fingers and asking for more. Leave a comment and let me know how they turned out for you. I added peppermint vitality essential oil to these donuts to make them extra special but it is optional.

Our daughter can’t eat chicken eggs (reactive) and I must limit egg whites (reactive) but subbing chia goo or flax goo for FIVE jumbo eggs would be iffy, it seems like. Do you have any suggestions, or do you know if quail eggs would work (we are trialing them to see – many people who can’t eat chicken eggs can eat quail eggs, I have learned). Thanks!

Your ingredient list has coconut oil, but your instructions say “add the coconut oil IF USING”.
So, then, is the coconut oil mandatory or optional?
I’d love to know…
Made it a bit more clear, thanks for reading!
