Cinnamon Donut Cakes + Cashew Butter

Yesterday I was asked if I ever run out of recipe ideas. And it got me thinking.
Baking and creating beautiful treats is fundamental to my happiness. It’s one thing in my life I know I can’t live without, and that’s why no I never run out of recipe ideas! In fact, I am constantly dreaming, making and thinking of recipes, that sometimes I have to ban myself from creating new ones in order to get other work done.
These little beauties came out of me home late one night, wanting to create something delicious. And I had to use what I had in the house. Isn’t it amazing what you can come up with when you really get those creative juices flowing… This is my absolute favourite type of recipe development - creating something from nothing.
Since I had no almond meal in the house (which is my go-to gluten-free, grain-free, low-carb flour substitute), I thought I’d experiment with some coconut flour instead, which makes these delicious cakes nut-free. Coconut flour is very drying and can be hard to work with, which is why this recipe contains Greek yoghurt and eggs to keep it moist, and let me tell you, it works a treat!

Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a donut tin or mini bundt tin with butter or ghee. Silicone works best.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk the coconut flour, monk fruit, cinnamon, salt and baking soda. Ensure there are no lumps. Set aside.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, then whisk in the yoghurt. Carefully stir in the melted butter or ghee, ensuring it is not too hot.
Step 4
Combine wet and dry ingredients until a dough forms. Spoon into the greased silicone mould. You can fill them up as this batter doesn’t rise much,
Step 5
Bake for 15 minutes. Cool completely before turning out.
Step 6
Top with desired topping.
