Air Fryer Cinnamon Almond Donut Holes

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I have few words to describe these donut holes other than INSANELY DELICIOUS. For how simple they are to make and the wholesome ingredients involved, these little donut bites are winners in my book. The air fryer keeps the donuts crisp on the outside and soft/doughy on the inside. I rolled them around in a cinnamon sugar mix before frying and they’re really just perfection. Eat them warm – straight from the fryer – and FALL in love!

Air Fryer Cinnamon Almond Donut Holes

Warm, cinnamon almond donut holes air fried to perfection with a crisp exterior and soft, doughy inside!
Course Breakfast, Dessert, Snack
Keyword almond extract, almond flour, cinnamon, donut holes, gluten free
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 8 minutes
Fridge Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 3 tbsp avocado oil or coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp almond extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 3 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt

Cinnamon Sugar Coating

  • A mix of coconut sugar & cinnamon just eyeball it!

Instructions

  • Combine all of your wet ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  • Add your dry ingredients to the wet and stir well to combine. (I like to use a silicone or rubber spatula).
  • Put dough in the fridge to rest for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pull out your air fryer and spray well with oil (olive oil/coconut oil/avocado oil all will work just fine). Also use this time to combine some coconut sugar with cinnamon in a small ramekin. I just eyeballed the measurements!
  • Using a cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll into small balls. Dip in the cinnamon sugar mixture and place in to your oiled air fryer. Make sure there's a tiny bit of space between each ball. They will expand/ puff up a bit! Depending on the size of your fryer, you may need to make 2 batches.
  • Turn your air fryer on to 350 degrees F and fry the donuts for 7-9 minutes. At around 4-5 minutes, shake the fryer basket. You'll know when the donut holes are done when the exterior looks puffed up and crisp with a few crackles! Let the donut holes cool for a few (if you can) and enjoy!
  • Store on counter for 1-2 days then transfer to fridge in a covered container.

I'm obsessed with how soft & delicate these cookies are, thx to a blend of almond and coconut flours. There's just enough lemon to make them slightly tart but still sweet ☺️
⁣
Catch them this Saturday at my pop up at @fernbotanica 12-5PM 🌿 These babies always sell out so get there early or pre-order a box! 💛😘
How early is too early to eat a chocolate chip coo How early is too early to eat a chocolate chip cookie? Asking for a friend ... 😆

I wasn’t planning on recipe testing these babies until later today but I woke up craving joy and baking brings me just that ❤️ Make sure you carve out time today just for YOU ... without a real agenda or plan or purpose. Just because it makes you smile 😊

Also, will report back on cookies. I really want to stuff them with ice cream and freeze them so they “set” like a proper ice cream sandwich!!🍦🍪
I journaled a bit this AM and a few themes came up I journaled a bit this AM and a few themes came up: comparison, restless brain, and success. Here's what I have for you ...⁣
⁣
1. Comparison is the thief of joy. Stop comparing!! You are unique, wonderful, capable, and SO amazing in your own right.⁣ ❤️
⁣
2. Don't believe everything you "think". Thoughts are just thoughts. Thoughts are not facts. ⁣🤔
⁣
3. You are confined only by the walls you build yourself. If you want to see change, grab your hammer & tear down those walls! YOU are in charge of your trajectory .. no one else.⁣ 🔨
⁣
Also, unrelated, but here's your Monday reminder to check in on your peeps. Most everyone I've talked to in the past few weeks is going through some real tough stuff. Be that person that brings them a little levity and some love. And if you (safely) can, hug 'em tight! I love hugs lol.⁣ 🤗
⁣
Which resonates w you most - 1, 2 or 3?  Hope you all have a great week!!! 💖

Someone I met at my pop up on Sat (hi if you're re Someone I met at my pop up on Sat (hi if you're reading!!) commented on how much she ❤️ my mini 🍌 bread and I realized I never shared the recipe!! 

These cutie loaves are SO simple, fluffy, made with the best mix of flours (hi almond, hi oat), lightly sweetened, and packed with vegan chocolate chips! 😋

Here's what you need:
• 1 cup mashed banana ~ 2 large or 3 small 🍌 (overripe!) 
• 2 eggs 🥚
• 1/4 cup coconut oil 🥥 - melted & cooled 
• 1/3 cup maple syrup 🍁
• 1 tsp vanilla extract 
• 1 cup GF oat flour 
• 1 cup almond flour 
• 1.5 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2/3 cup @enjoylifefoods choc chips 🍫

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease your mini loaf tin (should make 7 loaves). Mash bananas in a bowl and mix in the wet ingredients - eggs, oil, maple syrup, and vanilla. Add in the dry ingredients - flours, BP, cinnamon, salt - and stir to combine. Fold in choc chips. Equally distribute among greased tins. Bake for 25 mins (or until toothpick comes out clean). Let cool and enjoy! 💛
