Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut pan with non-stick spray or a small amount of coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, erythritol, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until light and frothy. Add the almond milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract, mixing until thoroughly combined.
Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and stir until you have a smooth batter.
Divide the batter evenly into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the donuts are firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the vanilla custard filling, in a small saucepan over low heat, whisk together heavy cream and vanilla pudding mix until it begins to thicken. Allow the custard to cool slightly before filling the donuts.
Once the donuts are cool, fill a piping bag fitted with a small nozzle with the custard. Pierce each donut and fill the center with the custard mixture.
For the chocolate glaze, melt the sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
Dip the top of each filled donut into the melted chocolate glaze and allow to set for a few minutes before serving.
