Alyssa's Healthy Donuts

DONUT BASE: almond flour, whole oat flour (certified gluten free), protein powder blend, stevia, baking powder (aluminum free), egg whites, 100% pure pumpkin, honey, unsweetened almond milk.

ICING: unsweetened almond milk, butter, vanilla extract and powdered sugar. Then we add flavorings when needed!

*We try to source local ingredients as often as we can

*Please see each flavor for specific allergens

optimal freshness: 5-7 days in the fridge in a sealed container

our donuts stay good for at least a month in the freezer as well! (just make sure to transfer to a sealed container always)

if the donuts start to seem a little dry, microwave them for a few seconds and they'll be good as new :-)

I grew up mainly eating pixy stix, reese cups, anything my aunt baked (shoutout to her peanut butter bars) and no joke tubes of straight up icing *lol* but then fell in love with everything health and fitness.

I wanted to be healthy and feel good while also enjoying sweets (preferably on a daily basis).

I started making healthier versions of pancakes, waffles, cheesecake, etc. then one day made a healthier version of a donut.

At the time, I was a personal trainer and started bringing them in as a fun treat for everyone after my fitness classes or to celebrate someones birthday, engagement, etc. 

Then one day when I was driving, I purposefully didn’t turn on music or a podcast (I think this is important to note because silence can be such a rare thing in a world of endless distractions and noise but allows us to hear ideas, thoughts and feelings within ourselves and gives them space to surface). It was National Donut Day and the thought came in that said “why don’t you sell your donuts today?”

One thought and one instagram post later, I was selling donuts because well… why not? But never did I think it would become a business or to be honest, I wasn't sure if anyone would even buy them that first day I posted lol.

but they did.. and after that week we had more and more people asking for our donuts. it grew quickly and organically with minimal "marketing" (aka an email list + instagram) accompanied by a hilarious effort at trying to figure things out as we went.

As things grew, my mom (like the angel she is) jumped in to help me bake since I was still personal training full time and now had a side hustle I didn’t plan on having lol we had our donut pickup out of the back of our cars in various different parking lots for about a year…

And now we are here - full time selling donuts AND I get to have the unique experience of building a business with my mom which is so cool. It’s been a wild journey that I am so thankful for.

Whatever this turns into (because let's be honest, we never truly know what is to come and/or where we will be nudged to go next), our overarching intention is to be a source of good in the world. To love people well. And we will carry that intention wherever we go.
