Ingredient Notes & Keto Substitutions

Coconut Flour
  • Coconut flour helps Keto Biscuit Donuts retain moisture and balances almond flour. Replace it with 1 extra tablespoon of almond flour, though the texture will soften.
Heavy Cream
  • Heavy cream adds richness to Keto Biscuit Donuts. For a lighter version, use unsweetened almond milk, but expect a softer structure
Almond Flour
  • Almond flour gives Keto Biscuit Donuts their shape and nutty crumb. Finely ground pecan flour works as a richer substitute.
Powdered Erythritol
  • This sweetener keeps Keto Biscuit Donuts low in carbs. Powdered allulose can be used, but it browns faster.
  • For more keto baking science, refer to authoritative resources like USDA Nutrient Database and Food Network Baking Tips.
