Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Donuts (GF/ Vegan Option) + Other Recipes for National Donut Day!

Happy National Donut Day!!! While I don’t celebrate food holidays, you know I couldn’t miss this one!!

I’d like to think of Donut Day as my personal holiday and the perfect excuse to whip up a fresh batch of baked donuts or treat myself to some from a local donut shop!! I’m currently visiting New York, so I’ll definitely be doing the latter today, and the baking will happen as soon as I return to my kitchen.

These double chocolate peanut butter donuts combine two of my absolute favorite flavors and use a base of almond and coconut flour to not only make them gluten free, but also protein packed and more satisfying! They can be made vegan by using a flax egg instead of a regular one, and dairy-free chocolate chips. For the “frosting,” I used powdered peanut butter and water, but peanut butter from the jar works perfectly, as well. Keep scrolling for the recipe, plus a few more of my favorite baked donuts at the bottom of this post!

Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Donuts

1 cup almond flour

2 tbsp coconut flour

3 tbsp dark cocoa powder

1/4 cup monk fruit (or any granulated sweetener)

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

2 eggs or flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flax + 2.5 tbsp water)

3 tbsp butter or coconut oil, melted & cooled

2 tbsp peanut butter

2 tbsp maple syrup

1 tsp vanilla

1/4 cup chocolate chips

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit and spray a donut pan with coconut or avocado oil.
  2. Mix all dry ingredients including flours, sweetener, baking powder and salt.
  3.  In a separate small bowl, combine wet ingredients including eggs, butter or oil, vanilla and maple syrup.
  4. Stir together the wet and dry ingredients, then fold in chocolate chips.
  5. Fill each donut mold fully and bake for 15-18 min or until firm to the touch. let cool fully before drizzling peanut butter or a mix of PB2 and water!

If you’re looking for some other flavor combos or options, I *highly* recommend my 2-ingredient Air Fryer Donuts, Chunky Monkey Protein Donuts, Pancake Donuts, or my absolute favorite Birthday Funfetti Donuts!!

How are you celebrating today?!
