Soft, cakey, high protein cottage cheese donuts bursting with nutty pistachio flavor and not a trace of gluten or refined sugar in sight. These Keto Pistachio Cottage Cheese Donuts with Coconut Flour are the ultimate low-carb treat for when you’re craving something indulgent but still want to stay on track. This small batch recipe uses full-fat cottage cheese as the base (yes, really!) to create an ultra-moist, slightly tangy texture that works like magic with coconut flour and a touch of sugar-free pistachio butter. If you haven’t tried my 2-Ingredient Pistachio Butter, this is your sign. It’s the secret behind the nutty richness and naturally vibrant green hue.

Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a mini food processor or blender, combine the cottage cheese, egg, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Add coconut flour, pistachio butter, sweetener, and baking powder. Blend again until fully combined and smooth. The batter will be thick and spoonable.
Preheat a Mini Donut Maker or lightly grease with a non-stick spray a donut pan. Spoon or pipe the batter (donut dough) in and cook for about 3u20134 minutes until golden brown and set. If using the oven, bake at 350u00b0F (175u00b0C) for 15u201318 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack.
Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil (or more pistachio butter) in a small bowl until smooth. Dip or drizzle over cooled donuts.
Let the glaze firm up, then store in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate for a longer shelf life.

Notes

The net carbs are calculated with the homemade pistachio butter recipe. Want to save 2g net carbs? Skip the chocolate glaze! Each serving will go from 6.9g to 4.9g net carbs. Use a non-stick spray for your waffle maker to prevent sticking. Donuts can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Best served at room temperature or lightly reheated.
