So I combined several recipes I found and took my favorite parts of each recipe to make this keto protein donut recipe. This recipe is easy, tasty and kid approved. These keto donuts make great snacks or breakfast on the go. Especially good for those days you may want a treat too.
These can be topped or decorated with your favorite toppings like melted dark chocolate or Swerving icing. They taste amazing by themselves too so have fun with this recipe and customize it to your tastes. Sometimes I’ll make it chocolate by swapping the peanut butter for 4 tablespoons cocoa powder plus 2 tablespoons heaving whipping cream.
Another idea would be to add Lily’s chocolate chip muffins. Enjoy these tasty keto donuts because they are only 3 net carbs!

Hi! We don’t care for the taste of stevia so how much Swerve or Monk fruit would I use instead of liquid stevia?
My go to sweetener now is Lakanto (which is a blend of monk fruit and erythritol) so you can definitely change the sweetener!
