A simple recipe to make delicious and nutritious protein donuts that are guilt-free and perfect for a healthy snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup oat flour
  • 1/2 cup vanilla protein powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/3 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional toppings: Greek yogurt glaze, chopped nuts, dark chocolate drizzle

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease your donut pan with coconut oil or use a non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in applesauce, almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined—don’t overmix. The batter should be slightly thick.
  5. Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each donut cavity about 3/4 full. Smooth out the tops if needed.
  6. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when touched and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Once cooled, top with your favorite glaze, nut butter, or a dusting of cinnamon.

Notes

  • For dairy-free: ensure your protein powder and milk are plant-based
  • For extra protein: top with Greek yogurt and peanut butter drizzle.
