So I retired as pastry chef for Bill Gates and Paul Allen. I am new to keto and keto baking is WAY different. I have made some real stinker recipes since starting keto, so I'm thrilled to find your channel. My doughnuts turned out perfectly and they didn't taste "keto". Thank you!

[@KetoUpgrade]

Wow that's a high compliment coming from such an esteemed pastry chef, thank you! It is definitely a lot different than regular baking. Took a lot of trials in the beginning, now usually only a couple, except for the really hard things which I am on 15 for some of them. You're very welcome, I hope you continue to enjoy.

[@grammydee6772]

OOooh Girl, when you figure out the Boston Cream, I am there..... My MOST favorite of all!

[@beverlyrucks8193]

I love your down to earth approach to your recipes, to your thorough and clear instructions and creative ideas. Bless you and thank you for your hard work!

Aww thank you! 💗 You're very welcome!

[@marzmontgomery]

I just shared this recipe on keto twins fb page. These are so fabulous, Imake a batch weekly. I don't glaze at all and I eat one every day for my chocolate fix. Best recipe for anything chocolate keto 😋 ❣️

[@KetoUpgrade]

[@morpheusjones4753]

These look delicious! I wish I lived near Buffalo so I could raid your bakery. I can't wait until you create some fried donuts. White cream and/or Jelly filled. Profiteroles would be nice as well. 🙂

[@KetoUpgrade]

Yeah I can't wait either! Definitely miss my fried filled donuts! This are on my list also!

[@susancochran2826]

I'm looking forward to a dense donut. Thank you for the recipe. My favorite is a long john filled with white cream, topped with powdered sugar from Clark's Donuts in PA. I live almost 3000 miles from there now. Out west you don't hear the term long john. I have had to request the white cream filling as that isn't common either.

[@1234cheerful]

Ah yes, those regional names and specialties!!!

[@OlgaAlyce]

If you have a Costco near by, and you or a friend are a member, go there to get 1/2 gallons of heavy cream for under $10.00.

[@KetoUpgrade]

Unfortunately we don't yet. But I try to get the walmart brand for 3.50 a qt. But sometimes they are completely sold out.

[@michelebarros8331]

Raspberry filled....that's my favorite.. second is old fashioned plain, or old fashioned cinnamon sugar.

[@KetoUpgrade]

Once I figure out the Boston cream I'll be able to do all the filled! Can't wait!

[@priscillagod_blessed_you217]

My favorite donut is chocolate iced with kreme filling.

[@KetoUpgrade]

That was my brother's I willprobably do that filling in the same video as the Boston cream. I feel like everyone is a fan of one or the other.

My go-to doughnut at Tim Horton's was the sour cream glazed because it goes so well with a hot cup of tea, but occasiinally they would have a chocolate doughnut, glazed and liberally coated with toasted macaroon coconut. Heavenly! Now, thanks to you, I can recreate them both. Than you!

[@KetoUpgrade]

My fav was always sour cream glazed! Have a fried and baked version but never get a chance to make them! Hope you enjoy! You're welcome!

I made a great glaze by taking the Herseys cocoa syrup recipe, and changing out the sugar. It thickens nicely for glaze.

Such a great channel. Thank you for explaining the appropriate ingredients for keto baking (especially what effect different types of sweetener have). I received a donut mold for Christmas and finally have a recipe to use!

[@KetoUpgrade]

Thank you! You are very welcome! Hope you enjoy the donuts!

[@sharonquay]

Donuts look great. One of my favorites is an eclair and 2nd is a jelly donut :)

[@KetoCookbooksCorner]

*This looks so delicious* 🤤

[@1234cheerful]

Okay, your donut mold makes 9 donuts so If I have an 8 donut mold, I just multiply the nutrition information for 1 donut by 9 and then divide by 8 and I should have a close approximation of the right numbers. Kitchen math, not my favorite but a necessary grind. Your channel is very impressive, you provide great recipes and ideas!

[@KetoUpgrade]

The recipe make 12-14 donuts the macros are for 1 of 12 chocolate donuts with vanilla glaze.

[@KetoUpgrade]

I hate kitchen math, bane of my existence! Thank you!

[@sharonbetcher5063]

My favorite donut other than krispie kreme glazed, is a lemon filled donut. Can you make a keto filled donut? Thanks !

[@RV-there-Yet]

"Lakanto Golden Monkfruit Sweetener" actually is mostly erythritol, so I was a little confused by that part. Did you maybe mean that if you used straight erythritol,(w/out the tiny bit of added monkfruit) then it might be softer? Or maybe just the plain white erythritol? I'm also a baker/candy maker, so I know how much difference it can make~ goodness, I've gone through SO many different iterations of recipes, based on the different sweeteners. Which is why your channel is immensely appreciated Alycia~ THANK YOU! These look/sound amazing, & I'm thinking they're on my short list at this point=) ~Samantha in AZ

[@KetoUpgrade]

I know but lakanto doesn't have a texture like brown sugar i said a straight erythritol like swerve which is the brand of erythritol that most people use, has added ingredients. There is more moisture in other products that aren't lakanto golden monkfruit/erythritol so it might make the bake good softer. Most people don't know that lakanto has erythritol mixed in because it says monkfruit in big letters and erythritol in small letters on the package.

[@PrayOnmykneesLouise]

I made these. They are amazing. I used Splenda Brown Sugar, Soy milk, and substituted flax seed. I would definitely make these again.

[@KetoUpgrade]

So glad you enjoyed them!!

[@ConspiracyMystic]

These. Are. Amazing. I added some toasted walnuts to my cups before covering them in batter. You'd be hard pressed to convince a non keto person that they're not regular old brownies. Absolutely amazing. I've copied the recipe down, and added it to my little recipe book of keepers. This one is FOR SURE a keeper! PS. Also really love your sour cream donut recipe. You are a treasure!!

I just made these donuts, I am new to keto and to making donuts. They came out beautiful, and taste amazing. I did not glaze them, maybe next time, but I am not of real big glaze fan. I also used just the regular monk fruit sweetner because I did not have the golden and it seems to have worked.

I didn't like a keto chocolate cereal I bought at Wal-Mart and I didn't want to throw it away so I ground them up, I added 1/2 cup coconut flour, 1 cup almond flour, 3 Tabl coconut oil, 1 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp almond extract, I spread it on a parchment lined baking pan which 9 by 13 then refridgerated. In a seperate bowl I mixed 2 packets of gelatin with 2 cups hot water, added 2 (8oz) packets of cream cheese, 1/2 cup cocoa powder, 1 cup munkfruit sugar 1/4 cup of agave, 1/2 tsp salt and poured over my cereal crust, refrigerate for 1 hour, it came out Delicious and yes I made a chocolate No bake cheesecake and I topped mine with strawberries

[@LauraMartinez-rn8jn]

Agave is not keto. Might as well use real sugar at that point

What's a good vanilla extract and which cocoa powder do you use

[@pattietierce9557]

Alysia, can you make French Crullers Keto?

[@KetoUpgrade]

On my list!!

[@grammydee6772]

Got my molds. Quick question, I only have Isopure whey protein isolate not the chocolate. I plan on using it because the choc one is the only item in list I don't have. I do have Perfect Keto Chocolate Collagen I could add maybe??? To keep it chocolate-ty, should I increase cocoa ya think? I know it adds carbs. Never trust that cocoa has "0" carbs. All cocoa has carbs. Grandson is on medical keto diet for seizures and the seizure website show the breakdown for all brands.

[@KetoUpgrade]

I put what I thought the ratio should be if you wanted to use unflavored whey protein in my blog. Just basically make your own chocolate whey protein with cocoa powder and protein then weigh out the protein. Maybe add a little stevia powder to it or some liquid stevia to the batter to make up for the less sweetness in the unflavored.

Can you substitute egg protein powder for the whey powder?

[@KetoUpgrade]

I haven't tried but some of my subscribers have on some of my recipes. Some recipes work some don't I have been told. I hate people saying absolutes with keto baking. Baking a cake and baking cookies is completely different and different things will work for each because keto baking isn't the same as regular baking. I believe it was a cookie recipe someone said worked replacing the whey but those recipes only have a small amount of whey protein so it makes sense. Someone tried it with my cream cheese danish which has a lot of whey protein powder in it and said it was a complete fail.
