Ingredients
- 3 oz. Cream Cheese

- 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
- 4 tbsp. Erythritol

Instructions
- Stick all of the ingredients inside of a container and mix together using an immersion blender.
- Make sure that you continue to mix everything for about 45-60 seconds – ensuring a smooth batter that’s slightly thickened.
- Heat donut maker up and spray with coconut oil to ensure non-stick properties. Pour batter into each well of the donut maker, filling about 90% of the way.
- Let cook for 3 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes. This is more time than my donut maker tells me to cook them, but I found that they’re slightly undercooked if you listen to the donut maker.
- Remove donuts from the donut maker and set aside to cool. Repeat process with the rest of the batter.
