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 finally sharing this insanely easy recipe (TY for your patience) and I cannot wait for you to try them. I've made these babies about 5 times in the past week and they're truly fabulous ❤️🍪

The ingredients are REAL and SIMPLE and the end result is very reminiscent of cookie dough. Plus they're packed with protein from nut butter and flax seeds so they've got some staying power .. aka the perfect snack 🙌🏻

With each passing day, I’m trying to appreciate the small, the mundane, and keep note of it in a gratitude journal. Thanks @earthandme.nyc for the idea ❤️ 

Today, and every day, try to find joy. Surround yourself with love and laughter. Connect with your people and tell them you how much you care. 

And with that I’ll say, I LOVE YOU! And all of your support 🥰 I delivered a bunch of muffins to new friends yesterday, just because, and it made me quite happy. Finding connection during the pandemic is key. I challenge you to call a friend this week and re-connect ❤️ Have a great day everyone!!

In my opinion, most muffins are better than most cupcakes ... cupcakes tend to be super dry and rely on a whole lot of frosting to make them even worth eating. A good muffin, on the other hand, has to be good on its own, without a mountain of sugar on top. A good muffin should be moist, flavorful, not too sweet, and packed with nutritious ingredients ..⁣

I tested these babies this morning and I am truly in love. The flavor and texture are 𝐎𝐍 𝐏𝐎𝐈𝐍𝐓. They're cakey and moist, packed with healthy fats from olive oil and walnuts, and lightly sweetened with honey and @lilys_sweets choc chips. ⁣
⁣
I need to adjust the amount of leavener I used because the middles sunk in a touch, but other than that, these muffins are pretty perfect. This means I want to test the recipe 𝐎𝐍𝐄 more time and then I will share out the deets so you can make them at home. I can't wait for you to try!!⁣ 🙌🏻

PS this gorgeous cutting board was a gift from @wildthingmanor and I just love it!⁣ ❤️
