These coconut flour donut holes are such a fun recipe and really easy to make! They would be a great recipe to make with kids for a birthday party or special brunch.

To me coconut flour is naturally sweet so it doesn’t require too much sweetener. There’s a little bit of coconut sugar in the donut holes and a little sprinkled around it, but it’s a nice sweet treat to have without the addition of too much sugar. Enjoy!

Instructions
 

Donut Holes

  • Pre-heat oven to 350°. Combine ingredients in a mixing bowl or food processor and mix well.
  • Set up a mini muffin tin with muffin liners. I use silicone muffin liners that you can reuse and I love them!
  • Roll small amounts of the dough into little balls and place in the muffin liners. Bake for about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.

Topping

  • Melt coconut oil and set aside. Combine coconut sugar and cinnamon on a plate.
  • Take each donut hole and brush with a little bit of coconut oil (I also used a handy silicone pastry brush for this). Roll the donut hole in the cinnamon sugar. Repeat with all the donut holes.

    “Little balls” is not very descriptive. Would be more helpful if you said something like “the size of a walnut,” etc. I made mine too big at first and had to go back and re-do them so I could fit them. Also, you said “Combine coconut sugar and cinnamon on a plate.” Using a shallow bowl is much easier. When you stir the two together, it’s hard to do on a plate. Thank you for the recipe, but it was not good, IMHO. My husband liked them OK, and so did the dog. I guess I’m picky! 🙂

  2. I just made these for my teenage sons both of whom are on a reduced carb diet. They absolutely loved them. Lightly sweet and oh so soft. Delicious..

  3. Followed recipe and currently have a flat mushy mess in the oven. The balls have completely collapsed, not sure what I’ve done wrong :/
