- In a mini food processor or blender, blend the cottage cheese, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Add in the almond flour, pistachio butter, sweetener, and baking powder. Blend again until the batter is thick, smooth, and spoonable.
- Preheat your mini donut maker or grease a donut pan well. Spoon or pipe the batter into each mold and cook for 3u20134 minutes, or bake in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-18 minutes, until golden and set.
- Melt the sugar-free chocolate chips with a bit of coconut oil (or pistachio butter) in a small bowl. Dip the tops of the cooled donuts or drizzle over for that perfect finish.
- Let the glaze firm up, then store the donuts in an airtight container at room temperature for 1u20132 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
Notes
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Let donuts cool completely before glazing to prevent the chocolate from melting off. Use sugar-free pistachio butter and chocolate chips to keep this recipe keto and low-carb. Skipping the glaze reduces net carbs by about 2g per serving. Bake in a mini donut maker for ~3–4 minutes or in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15–18 minutes.
