Ingredients

Donuts

  • 1 small white sweet potato raw (or regular sweet potato)
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot flour
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons water optional: to thin the batter, if your is too thick
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup coconut butter coconut manna
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2-3 tablespoons boiling water
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • dash of pumpkin pie spice
  • pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Generously grease a donut pan with coconut oil.
  • Dice sweet potato into chunks and mince in a food processor. Add rest of ingredients for donuts and blend until smooth.
  • Scoop batter into a piping bag or plastic bag and fill donut pan with batter. Bake on 350F for 30 minutes then cool before gently scooping donuts out with a spoon.
  • Bring coconut butter to room temp, until it's drizzly and liquidy- you can do this by putting the jar into a bowl of hot water until it melts. In a bowl blend ingredients together with a spatula until smooth.
  • Set donuts on a cooling rack and pour glaze over.
