No-bake mocha donuts, made with nuts, dates, oats and other wholesome ingredients. They’re made in the food processor in under 30 minutes and are topped with a simple frosting and shredded coconut.
We’re revisiting the first recipe I posted on the blog, 3 years ago – Raw espresso donuts. I gave them a little makeover and a different name and I’m sharing the updated version. You can check the original recipe here (just ignore the photos).
What did I change? I used unsweetened chocolate instead of cocoa nibs, I reduced the amount of coffee slightly and I gave you a few more options for the nuts.
The chocolate frosting has also been updated. I don’t always have coconut oil as it’s not something I love to use often, so I skipped it and used high-fat coconut milk instead of light. There’s also a little more cocoa powder and I omitted the coffee grinds here. The result? Less ingredients and a recipe that’s equally as delicious, if not more.
Just like the other donuts, these are made in the food processor and require no baking or frying! Think of it as an energy bite in the shape of a donut (and topped with a creamy frosting).
I updated a few old recipes from the blog that I’ll be sharing while we’re travelling. Don’t worry though, I have plenty of brand new recipes too!
You can still expect one to two recipes per week, along with a few non-recipe posts (travel updates, coffee breaks and wedding things). Many of you also requested posts on what we’re eating while travelling and how to stay healthy when travelling. I’ll definitely share everything I can! If you have other food and travel-related posts you’d like to see on the blog, let me know!
And now, I’ll leave you to today’s mocha donuts.

This recipe is so amazing. A really decadent treat! I made them, sans coffee and frosting with my donut obsessed preschooler and she (and I) loved them!
Aww that's so sweet! I'm happy you both loved them. :) Enjoy!
