Who doesn’t love donuts (or doughnuts if you don’t live in America)? They are fried, sweet little treats that can be enjoyed for breakfast, as a snack of anywhere in between. But, like with most sweets, donuts are typically full of sugar! A Krispy Kreme donut will average between 10-30g of sugar, whereas a Dunkin Donuts donut averages around 12-21g of sugar. No matter what popular donut shop you chose, chances are, their donuts are definitely not keto-friendly (unless you are going to a keto bakery). Rather than give up the donut-loving, inner Homer Simpson in you, celebrate National Donut Day by trying one of these five keto donut recipes instead!

Keto Chocolate Donuts



It’s hard to go wrong with a chocolate donut! They taste delicious all on their own, or you can customize them by topping the dough (before you bake them) with your favorite keto-friendly ingredients like the following:

  • Coconut (unsweetened shredded, flakes, or chips)
  • Chocolate chips (unsweetened or sweetened with erythritol or stevia)
  • Nut butters (like peanut or almond butter)
  • Chopped berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries) 
  • Bacon
