Tis the season of pumpkins,
pumpkin pie and pumpkin spice lattes!
But watch out!
Some of those delicious sounding “Pumpkin Spice Lattes”
may have over 50 grams of sugar in one cup and
absolutely no pumpkin in the ingredients!
To get a healthier pumpkin spice latte fix,
I’ve made these delicious, easy-to-made
Guilt-Free Pumpkin Spice Latte Donuts!
Gluten-free and (almost) vegan.
Guilt-Free Pumpkin Spice Latte Donuts
What You Need:
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup coconut palm sugar
1 tsbp pumpkin spice
organic canned pumpkin puree
2 eggs (free-range, organic), beaten (room temp)
1/2 cup coconut oil
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp coffee or coffee extract
*I like using this donut tin
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
2. Coat a tiny bit of coconut oil on donut tins
3. Mix dry ingredients in a bowl (coconut palm sugar, pumpkin spice, coconut flour)
4. Mix wet ingredients (eggs, coconut oil, pumpkin puree, coffee extract, vanilla extract) in separate bowl
5. Combine dry + wet ingredients together
6. Pour into donut tin.
7. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Let cool.
Voila!
Top it off with some melted dark chocolate and chocolate chips,
organic canned pumpkin puree, or dip in some coconut flour
and coconut palm sugar for a powdered sugar look!
*Makes approx 6 delish donuts.
