Gluten Free Coconut Donut Holes
Our latest gluten free recipe is ‘Coconut Donut Holes’ made with coconut oil, coconut flour, shredded coconut and coconut palm powder/nectar. We pan fried the donut holes with organic coconut oil so they are healthy to eat! See recipe below. We also made a ‘hard chocolate sauce’ using cacao and coconut oil instead of butter. Very healthy and tasty!

4. Prepare your tomato sauce and then divide into 4 parts. Set aside.5. On an empty plate place 5 zucchini slices across the plate, overlapping each other.
6. Using a spoon, add 1 part stuffing (of 8) on half the side of the zucchini slices. Then add your eggplant on top of the stuffing. (You will be folding the zucchini slices over, to then start your second layer.)
7. Fold the zucchini layer (slices) that does not have any stuffing on it and then add another 5 zucchinis on top, going across, overlapping each other.
8. Repeat the stuffing process and fold again.
9. Add your sauce on the top of the folded zucchini layer. This should complete the process and you should now have 1 ‘slice’ of zucchini lasagna.
10. Repeat this process 3 more times. You should have an equal amount of stuffing including eggplant and tomato sauce if you divided them into parts at the beginning of this process.
