Paleo Doughnuts

Last Friday was National Doughnut Day!  I kept seeing different paleo doughnut recipes that were posted on Facebook and I got inspired to try my own recipe.  I brought the doughnuts to my school's end of the year party and everyone loved them!!  I am a sucker for cinnamon sugar, but the chocolate glaze was a HUGE hit!!
