Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup flour (or try these Keto Donuts) (90g)
  • 1/4 cup chocolate protein powder (30g)
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder (10g)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (or any nut or seed butter) (120g)
  • 1/3 cup water (80g)
  • 1/4 cup yogurt or mashed banana (60g)
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or honey (60g)
  • Optional toppings (see above)

Instructions

  • Grease a donut pan (or a mini muffin pan for donut holes). Preheat the oven to 350 F. Whisk all dry ingredients well, then stir in wet to form a batter. Smooth into the prepared pan. Bake for 8 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out mostly clean. Let fully cool before carefully going around the sides of the protein donuts with a knife and popping onto a plate. Add frosting or toppings as desired, and enjoy!
