Keto Peanut Butter Cups

Keto Peanut Butter Cups

 

These didn’t take long…maybe about 15 minutes and I hate to admit but I didn’t stop at one!  Oops!  

 

  • 1 cup Adams No Stir Peanut Butter
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 2-1/2 T Sukrin Gold
  • 2 cups powdered 
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 tsp Madagascar Vanilla beans
  • 6 oz Sugar Free chocolate chips
  • 1 T palm shortening

 

DIRECTIONS:

Blend peanut butter, butter, Sukrin, Swerve and vanilla into a dough.  Roll out onto silicone mat or parchment paper until 1/2 inch thick.  Cut into circles ( I used a tea biscuit cutter 1-1/2 inch).  Place in freezer to firm up.  

In microwaveable bowl, melt chocolate chips with palm shortening on medium heat.  Put one teaspoon into cupcake liner, place one cut out peanut butter dough, then top with another tsp of chocolate.  Place in freezer until firm.

Keto Pumpkin Spice Donuts.

 

Ingredients:

4 T butter, melted in bowl

2 T  Oat Fiber

1 T Protein powder ( I used Julian Paleo Protein)

1 T Gelatin

1/8 tsp nutmeg

1/8 tsp ginger

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp Butter Vanilla Emulsion     or 1/2 tsp of butter and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp Sweet Buttery Dough Emulsion  (optional but sooo good)

1/4  tsp salt

2 tsp baking powder

4 whole eggs 

1/3 c  heavy cream

1/3 cup  Swerve Granular

1 T Choc Zero Pumpkin Spice Syrup or (1 tsp Stevia Glycerite + 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie Spice)

 

Glaze:

4 T melted Butter

2 T Choc Zero Pumpkin Syrup (if you do not have you can leave out…it just gives a really good texture!)

4 T powdered Swerve

1/8 tsp each cinnamon and ginger and nutmeg

***If you are not using the Choc Zero Syrup add 1/8 tsp Pumpkin spice along with the above spices

2  T Heavy Cream

2 T water

 

 

DIRECTIONS:

Whisk everything together until smooth.  Spoon into greased donut pan.  Enough for 6 regular sized donuts.  Bake for 20 minutes at 325 degrees.  Cool in pan for 10 minutes.  Cool on wire rack for a couple of minutes.  Then dip into glaze and cool completely.  

 GLAZE DIRECTIONS:

Whisk .  Should pour but  be thick enough to coat a spoon. Dip each donut in and then sit back on wire rack to finish cooling.  The longer they set the firmer the bread gets.

Today I discovered that Emma will not only eat vanilla donuts but she loved these Keto Pumpkin Spice Donuts too!  She also told me that I should try leaving the glaze off of a couple of them next time and let her toast one like a bagel and add butter and cinnamon/Stevia on it or maybe just cream cheese.  So that is an idea as well!

 

I had several people request this recipe today so that is why I am posting a donut recipe two days in a row!  Happy baking everyone!
