[Grain-Free] Strawberry Shortcake Donuts
I have the most perfect Valentine’s Day dessert that you can make for your favorite person. I mean, who doesn’t LOVE strawberry shortcake?!
You can whip up these grain-free donuts in only a few minutes, and the best part is that you only need a few ingredients!
Scratch that, the best part is that they are frickin delicious.
They are made with almond and coconut flour, one of my favorite combos. Then just whip up some homemade coconut whipped cream, top with LOTS of juicy strawberries, and OMGGGGG you have yourself a dessert.
If I know my husband, he is going to eat the whole batch in one night. Unless I eat them all first, that is.
[Grain-Free] Strawberry Shortcake Donuts
Servings 9 donuts
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 3 tbsp coconut oil melted
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup strawberries
Coconut Whipped Cream
- 1 (15oz) can full-fat coconut milk refrigerated overnight
- 3 tbsp real maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine all of the donut ingredients in a large mixing bowl, and whisk until evenly combined.
- Spray a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray (I used coconut oil spray), and pour the batter into the donut molds, filling 3/4 of the way to the top.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, until slightly golden on top. Remove from the oven and let the donuts cool for 5-10 minutes before removing.
- When removing the donuts from the molds, take a butter knife and run it along the outside to help loosen up the donuts. Then flip the donut pan over and carefully and drop the donuts onto a wire cooling rack.
- While the donuts cool, make the coconut whipped cream. In a medium sized bowl, spoon the thick cream that separated from the coconut water into the bowl. Use an electric hand mixer to start to whip the coconut cream.
- Whip it for at least 30-60 seconds, until it starts to form a thick whipped cream. Add the maple syrup and vanilla, and mix again to incorporate. Let the whipped cream chill in the fridge for a few minutes before serving.
- To serve, just place a dollop of the whipped cream on top of a donut, and garnish with a few pieces of chopped strawberries.
- Serve and enjoy!
