Want a Donut?



Nothing more adorable than Brandon cookin in the kitchen! :)
Brandon came home from his corporate Christmas party with... A DONUT MAKER. I said Brandon, What are we going to do with this, we don't eat donuts~ He said "Oh just you wait, I will make you a paleo donut." Sure enough, Brandon did some research and made some AMAZING Paleo donuts. Courtesy of http://www.pragmaticpaleo.com/ He made these for us and then he took them to the office and shared them with his co-workers. They couldn't believe that they were Paleo. I was so proud of Brandon's baking skills and even more excited to have a donut that I didn't feel (as guilty) eating. YUM! Enjoy!
Brandon's Paleo Donuts
1/2 c. of coconut flour
1/4 tsp Sea salt
1/4 tsp of baking soda
6 eggs
1/4 c 100% organic honey
1 TBS Vanilla
1/2 c. Grass Fed Butter
 Preheat oven to 350F
Blend all the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
Blend in all the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Mix until well-blended.
Fill donut pan circles about 2/3 of the way full with batter.
We used the donut maker and baked them for 6 minutes (or until Golden brown) If you do not have one of these fancy donut makers you could bake them for about 20 minutes on a tray in the oven.

If you are having a Chocolate craving day, try this:  
Chocolate Donuts add to batter:
2 tsp.  unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Toppings we used (we were just playing around and trying out a few things):
Toasted coconut flakes
Raw dark chocolate
Melted dark chocolate
100% organic honey
Chopped pecan pieces
Cinnamon and Palm sugar
 
We run on PALEO- donuts!
