  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup

Chocolate Glaze Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons chocolate chips
  • ½ teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Begin by mixing the dry ingredients in a bowl: oat flour, Healthy Heights protein powder, coconut sugar, baking powder, and a dash of salt. Ensure they are well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: peanut butter, melted coconut oil, and dairy-free milk.
  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, stirring until a smooth batter forms.
  4. Transfer the batter to a large piping bag and cut off the end to allow for easy piping.
  5. Pipe the batter into a donut mold, filling each cavity evenly.
  6. Bake the donuts for 15-17 minutes. Allow them to cool completely after baking.
  7. For the frosting, combine peanut butter and coconut oil in a bowl. Microwave for 1 minute, ensuring the mixture becomes smooth and well-integrated. Note: Use natural creamy peanut butter for the best consistency.
  8. Stir in the Healthy Heights protein powder and maple syrup into the melted peanut butter mixture.
  9. Once the donuts are cooled, dip each one into the frosting and place them on a cooling rack. If desired, drizzle melted chocolate on top for an extra touch of sweetness.
  10. Refrigerate the donuts until the glaze hardens.
  11. Store the donuts in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days. This recipe yields 7-8 delicious donuts.

    Enjoy these wonderfully healthy and protein-rich donuts, boosted with the goodness of Healthy Heights protein powder! They're a fantastic way to indulge in a sweet treat while sticking to your health goals.
