These Cinnamon No-Bake Keto Donut Holes are everything you dream they would be! Not only are they crazy easy to make, but they are sweet, cinnamon-y, and melt in your mouth.
cinnamon no-bake vegan and keto donut holes
As many of you know, no-bake treats are my absolute favorite snacks and desserts!!! They are just so incredibly fast and easy to make and very portable for school lunches. Many times when my kids get home from school they’ve already raided the fridge and aren’t even hungry by the time I get a snack made! But since these keto donut holes are made within 5 minutes, they’re perfect for after school.
Also, I don’t have to wait 15 minutes for them to bake before I know if they’re good or not or how the texture turned out. I’m like an evil scientist with my mixing bowl adding ingredients and tasting and adding… until I get them exactly perfect. Feel free to taste these as you go and adjust them to your liking and sweetness level.
can i use butter instead of coconut oil?
You can use butter in place of the coconut oil, but when taste testing them side-by-side my entire family preferred the coconut oil . Surprising right!?! I thought for sure we would like the butter version better. The coconut oil donut holes, though, just had a better texture.
The ones made with butter were slightly softer and were lacking that bread-y texture, if that makes any since. Especially because they’re not even baked! Don’t get me wrong, the butter version was good but the coconut oil version had more substance, texture, and they seem to just melt in your mouth more 🙂 Uhm, yeah I’ll take that one thank you!!!
I hope you love them as much as we do. Let me know what you think in the comment section below 🙂

These are really good! Easy to make, and makes me feel like I’m having a sweet treat. I made them a second time and decided to coat them in a little unsweetened shredded coconut, and they are amazing! Thank you for the recipe
Thanks Frankie! …I’ll have to try them with coconut, what a great idea, thanks!!!

These taste like donuts but are super sweet, I think too sweet; but I did use a 1/4 cup of packed brown sugar/swerve…maybe I shouldn’t have used this?
Hi valery! I sweetened them similar to a traditional donut hole which might be too sweet for some people on keto that are used to eating low sugar, sorry! Feel free to reduce or omit the sweetener if needed.
Delicious!

Made these and they were amazing!!
Yay Vanessa, I’m so excited you liked them!!!

is a serving amount one donut hole?
H Melinda! Yes, one donut hole is 1 serving . I made my donut holes pretty large though, you can make them more bite-sized then you’d be to eat more per serving 🙂 Hope you love them, let me know what you think!!!

I love that these are made with almond flour (yay for sneaking in some protein and fiber)! I also love that you can pick the sweetener that works best for your diet. They look like the perfect guilt-free indulgence!
Thanks Brianna! Yeah, they are a pretty delicious little treat – but one that you can feel good about!!
-Cassidy
I’m always amazed by how beautifully almond flour bakes up! I haven’t baked with alternative sweeteners yet, but I bet these are delicious.
Yummm, I haven’t had donut holes in forever! I need to make these soon 🙂 Such a perfect little treat.
Simply delicious these are my kind of snack! I’ll take a few with a chai latte please!
I love all things cinnamon, and cute bite sized treats. So many great ingredients in here!
