Baked Protein Donuts-
The first time I made these I used "A Big Man's World" recipe for Flourless Cinnamon Bun Breakfast Donuts- while they were good, I thought they were fairly dry and just not amazing.
Kodiak Cake Protein Donuts
(makes 12 donuts)Donuts:
- 3 Cups Kodiak Protein Cake Mix- 3/4 Cup Milk
- 1/2 Cup Water
- 1 Egg
- 1 Egg White
- 1/4 Cup Sugar (or sweetener of your choice)
- 1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
Frosting:
- 1 Scoop Chocolate Whey Protein Powder- 1/2 Cup Chocolate Chips, melted
- Water or Milk to thin out
- Sprinkles, optional
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
1. Mix all of the donut ingredients together in a medium bowl. Using a spoon, or just fixing the donuts in the pan after you pour the batter, evenly fill 12, greased, donut molds. Tap the pan on the counter when you are done to get rid of any air bubbles. Bake for 7-9 minutes until they spring back when you lightly touch them. Let them cool completely before frosting.
2. Frosting- work fast! Lesson learned my first time! I melted my chocolate with a bit of milk in the microwave, stirring until smooth. Pour into the protein powder... thin out with more milk or water (if needed) until a thick, smooth, frosting is formed. Dip each donut in the frosting and let it dry on a cooling rack. The frosting will harden as it cools.
