These looks so awesome. I haven't tried them yet and I will update when I get a chance to make them.

They look delicious! My son would love them....not sure about the chocolate though. Havent introduced that yet, what chocolate do you use for E?
I waited a while before introducing chocolate. I use unsweetened baking chocolate that is safe (except the chocolate) and melt it with honey added to sweeten it.
Finally made these on Sunday for Father's Day ~ amazing! I actually used a simpler basic donut recipe but used the caramel recipe from the above recipe. I even gave one to my mom and dad (who are very picky) and they said it was the best thing they ever tasted and they couldn't believe it was E safe.

What is your simpler recipe? I'm making these this weekend for a party. Glad to see those not on scd liked them . My picky crowd should be happy!
I used the donut recipe from here (scroll to the bottom)

I replaced the arrowroot flour with coconut flour. It was amazing. I used a mini donut maker. I think the smaller size is better for paleo stuff. Since we had already used the donut recipe above, I didn't bother with the one in the samoa recipe. I used that recipe to make the caramel though. The caramel takes a while so I started it first and then worked on the donuts.
So it went like this....I started the caramel. Made the batter, began cooking the donuts (my maker holds 7 at a time). While the first batch was going I melted the chocolate in a bowl large enough to fit a donut. I took a baking pan and lined it with aluminum foil and lightly sprayed with cooking oil. I would take the cooler donuts, dip one side in the bowl chocolate, and then place them plain side down on the pan. When the pan was full, I popped it in the freezer to cool the chocolate. I then worked on the next pan. When I had the coconut/caramel ready, I took the pan from the freezer (when the chocolate was hardened) and flipped them plain side up and added the caramel, drizzled chocolate, and toasted coconut. I then placed them back in the freezer until everything was cooled.
