Soft, low carb donuts that are easy to make. These donuts need just 3 ingredients and one bowl to make the dough. No mixer needed. You can customize with your favorite donut toppings.
1 7/8cups (179 g)superfine blanched almond flour, you can measure out 2 cups and remove 2 tbsp for 1 7/8 cups
1/4cup (48 g)sugar-free sweetener, see note before starting
1/2cup (118 g)plain Greek yogurt, can use fat free, low fat or whole milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix the almond flour, sweetener and Greek yogurt in a medium bowl until a thick dough forms. If your mixture seems too wet you can add a little more almond flour.
Use a 1.5 tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop dough and roll them into balls. Place the donut holes on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden. The balls should also feel slightly firm and should not fall apart if you apply light pressure to the surface.
Let donuts fully cool before adding any optional glaze. Donuts are best consumed within a few hours after they are cooked. They will become more firm and less soft if they are left out too long. Store uneaten donuts in the fridge or freezer. You can reheat them to get them soft and chewy again.
Notes
Sweetener note: These donuts work best with a monkfruit erythritol blend. Avoid using allulose or a sweetener blend with allulose because it will cause the donuts to be too moist and to brown too quickly.

Optional glaze:
1/2 cup powdered sweetener (I used Lakanto powdered monkfruit with erythritol (Amazon | Target | Walmart)*
2-4 tbsp water, milk or milk alternative
In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sweetener and liquid of choice until smooth. Start with 1 tbsp and add more as needed until it reaches your desired consistency. Using milk or a milk alternative will give you a more rich glaze.
