Coconut and chocolate…together in harmony…
I like the flavour combination of chocolate and coconut and put them together in the form of a donut. I had a day of making various donut recipes with coconut flour and this was one of them. Chocolate and coconut..what’s not to love!
As ever, you need a donut tin. I am yet to find a source in Dubai for this but have not looked too hard…I ordered mine via Amazon and it took about a week to get here. If anyone finds the tin here, please let me know so I can spread the word. As well as dipping these donuts into dessicated coconut, I also dipped a couple into ground erythritol as an alternative to icing sugar…tasted nice!
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup erythritol
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 tspn salt
1/4 tspn baking soda
6 eggs
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/4 cup coconut milk
1 tblspn vanilla extract
TOPPING
2-3 tblspns Agave syrup
3-4 tblspns unsweeted grated coconut
METHOD
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees.
- Mix the coconut flour, ertyhtritol, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt together.
- Add the eggs, coconut oil, coconut milk and vanilla extract. Blend well until the batter is smooth (a hand blender is handy! If not, work those arms!).
- Fill the donut tin to about 2/3 full with the batter and bake for about 20 minutes until firm.
- Remove, cool slightly and dip into the Agave syrup, then the coconut.
- Eat and enjoy!
Perfect timing! My new donut pan arrived just yesterday from Amazon. Can’t wait to make these. Thanks. Where have you been all my LC life? HA!
Oooh! So excited you have the pan! Hope they come out fine for you! Let me know how they work out! Glad to be a part of your LC life!! x
