Instructions
Make the Donuts:

- In a large bowl, whisk melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, and eggs until thoroughly combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Stir in the flour mixture, alternating with the coconut milk, until the batter is thoroughly mixed and combined.
- Fill the donut molds using a piping bag or a spoon until 3/4 full. Bake until the donuts spring back when touched and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 17-18 minutes. Let cool.
