    I am such a cynic. This looks like the door to cravings and no more keto for me.... hope it works!

    That's the same reason I've never even made a sweet fat bomb. I'd eat the whole darn batch right off and it would gateway me into a feeding frenzy.

    Just looking at sweet recipes give me the hangries. I put 2 different PB cookies recipes into MFP last night. My oldest son likes to bake and wanted to make PB cookies we could all enjoy. Just thinking about the PB cookies was killing me. I told him he should hold off on that.

    I try not to dwell on recipes or food porn, it gets me craving so I have to go chew some gum to keep me from going Cookie Monster on food.

    Is that an older corelle plate pattern? :) Looks lovely, I'm scared to try dessert type recipes even with stevia in them. I'm afraid it will make me crave the real stuff!

    yes it is, I don't even know where the plate came from, I think its one of SO's moms plates that we ended up with. they are classic.

    Ooooh.... I am making these for the holidays. I'm not sure if I'll try them, but they look good for the family. I'll make donut holes though since I don't have anything to deep fry in besides a frying pan.

    You kinda have to fry them in a pan or they'd fall apart. I think I'm gonna try donut holes next time to. I have a cake pop pan I might see if that works too bake them

    I'd be curious to see how the cake pop donuts turn out.

    This time I baked them in my cake pop pan for twenty minutes at 350. Maybe a little too long cuz they are a little dark on the bottom but not burned. I like them this way much better, less oily than frying and easier too.

    I actually followed the recipe exactly and took the donuts to a tailgate party today. They were pretty good but not good enough to make me binge. Even people who are not low carbing it thought they were pretty good. Make no mistake, these are not Dunkin Donuts. They had nice apple flavor and not too sweet. I made them with splenda baking and fried them in Canola oil. I liked the coconut flour as it isn't as grainly as the almond flour I've been getting. I wouldn't bother if I wasn't going to some place where the temptation would be overwhelming.

    I like the idea of the donut holes above. They would be a lot less messy to prepare

    I made these last night. Followed the recipe exactly and the dough was pretty soft/sticky. I ended up waiting an hour or so before hand-forming the donuts. Fried them in a deep fryer and they came out well without falling apart (one ended up being C-shaped because i hadn't pressed it together well enough).

    They are not particularly sweet, and I didn't really think they were all that flavorful in general. Probably won't bother making them again.
