Apple Doughnut Holes

Oh my, are these good! They aren't your traditional cakey doughnut, but boy are they tastey! You will want to eat them right away, and while they are good hot, they are MUCH better once they are cool!

Apple Doughnut Holes

1 stick butter

3 TBSP coconut sap sugar

1/2 c apple juice

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 TBSP tapioca flour

3/4 c chestnut flour

3 1/2 TBSP coconut flour

3 eggs

1 medium apple, peeled and grated

1/3 c coconut sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

Place the butter, coconut sugar, and apple juice in a small sauce pan and bring to a boil over medium heat. In a small bowl mix together the salt, cinnamon, tapioca flour, chestnut flour, and coconut flour. Once the apple juice mixture comes to a boil add the flour mixture and stir, continuing to cook and stir over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Transfer to the bowl of an electric mixer and beat on medium low for about a minute. With the mixer on, add the eggs one at a time, allowing each one to completely mix in before adding the next. Turn to high and beat for about a minute. Add the apple and stir to combine.

Heat about 3 inches of coconut oil to 340 degrees in a 2 qt. sauce pan. Using two spoons, drop about 1 1/2 tsp blobs into the oil, three in the pan at a time. Fry until they turn a deepish golden color, flipping a couple of times so they cook evenly.

Transfer to a cooling rack over a cooking sheet and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar immediately.

And the Bible verse of the week!

"I command you: be strong and steadfast!

Do not fear nor be dismayed, for the LORD,

your God, is with you wherever you go.”

Joshua 1:9
