These keto glazed donuts are what happens when a light and fluffy donut meets a cake donut. Frosted with a sweet vanilla glaze and topped with cinnamon.

Keto Glazed Donuts

Donuts are one of those fickle things that either turn out great or are a giant flop. Trust me, I’ve had plenty of both.

These keto glazed donuts are the top of the top when it comes to donut success, however, A tried and true recipe that turns out beautiful every time.

Back before keto, I used to love going to the bakery and picking out a completely naughty and sugar filled donut with my kiddos. I spent a long time missing donuts until I decided to tackle the all elusive keto donut recipe!

How to Make Keto Glazed Donuts with Cinnamon Sugar

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Add the almond flour, protein powder, powdered sugar substitute, baking powder, melted butter, eggs, 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a mixing bowl, and beat on high until a smooth batter is formed.

Fill the sections of a donut baking pan to the top, and bake for 15-20 minutes until browned and completely cooked through. Let the donuts cool completely.

Add the 4 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream and 6 tablespoons of powdered sugar substitute to a mixing bowl, and beat on high until smooth and creamy.

Dip the top of the donuts into the glaze mixture, and set the donuts on a rack to allow the glaze to set.

Mix together the granulated sweetener and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon in a small bowl, and sprinkle it on top of the donuts before the glaze has completely set.

Are Donuts Keto Friendly?

Not your everyday bakery donut. But these glazed donuts are most certainly keto!

Made with almond flour, low carb sweeteners and whey protein powder, they are keto all the way!

What to Eat With Keto Glazed Donuts

I mean, do you NEED something to eat them with? Certainly not! I do like to have savory along with sweet in the morning, though, if I’m going to have something sweet.

I like to eat these with some scrambled eggs or even some keto maple bacon!

Kitchen Essentials

A donut mold pan is a must. I rotate between using a standard donut pan like these ones or silicone molds like these ones. Both work just fine!

I find that it is easier to get the donuts out of the silicone ones, yet they hold their shape occasionally in the regular ones.

No matter which ones you have, your keto donuts will turn out fantastic.

Can I Make Keto Chocolate Frosting?

You sure can! In fact, jump on over to the keto chocolate donut recipe and use the frosting for that one! It will taste beautiful with these donuts as well!

Oooooh! What about a keto maple frosting? Hmmm.. That is going to be next! Stay tuned for that!
