Guilt-free chocolate donuts that are rich in protein and perfect for breakfast or snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup blanched almond flour (spooned & leveled)
  • 1/2 cup hemp protein powder (spooned & leveled)
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder (spooned & leveled)
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut yogurt (unsweetened)
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips (for glaze)
  • 1 tsp coconut oil (for glaze)
  • 2 tbsp almond butter (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease six slots of a donut pan and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: almond flour, hemp protein powder, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the wet ingredients until smooth: eggs, maple syrup, coconut yogurt, and vanilla extract.
  4. Combine the wet and dry mixtures, stirring until well combined. Place the batter into a plastic bag, snip the corner, and pipe it into the donut pan slots, filling them nearly to the top.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  6. Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Let them cool completely before glazing.
  7. In a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil in 20-30 second intervals, stirring in between. Once melted, mix in the almond butter.
  8. Dip each cooled donut into the chocolate glaze and set them on a wire rack or parchment paper. Place the glazed donuts in the fridge or freezer to set.

Notes
