These donuts are Paleo, gluten-free, dairy-free, and low-carb. They’re super easy to make and have a fluffy but also gooey texture, almost like cake donuts!
If you don’t like the taste of coconut, then you can sub the coconut oil for melted butter or ghee. That would be just as delicious! You could also sub avocado oil as well, for a flavorless and dairy-free alternative.
What if I don’t like coconut?
If you don’t like the taste of coconut, then no worries! You can sub the coconut oil in the recipe for avocado oil (I prefer Primal Kitchen), butter, or ghee.
