Sugar Free & Low Carb Cinnamon “Sugar” Doughnuts

The other day someone brought a box of delicious looking carb loaded doughnuts to the office. With little surprise, the buzz flew and before I knew it there was email after email reminding everyone that we had every doughnut imaginable like glazed, filled, and the infamous cinnamon sugar.

I can’t lie.. I did take a long gander over at the box when taking the long walk to the water jug, at least three times. Needless to say, I was craving doughnuts.

Once this last weekend came around I knew the first thing on my to do list was developing a low carb cinnamon sugar doughnut recipe that would please my diet and taste buds. I won’t lie and say I got it on the first time, because I didn’t. It took me three times and over three dozen doughnuts until I got the recipe to it’s delicious state as it is now.
