Donut Ingredients

  • 60 g unflavored whey protein powder
  • ½ cup granular erythritol
  • 3 tbsp coconut flour
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ⅛ tsp ground cloves
  • 2 large egg whites
  • ¼ cup pumpkin, canned
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil
  • ¼ tsp table salt

Glaze Ingredients

  • 30 g unflavored whey protein powder
  • 3 tbsp confectioners erythritol
  • 2 tbsp sugar-free maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ tsp maple extract
 

Directions

 
  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  2. Whisk together the dry ingredients.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix in the wet ingredients. The batter will be thick, almost like a dough.
  4. Spoon the batter into a Ziploc bag, seal it, and cut off one corner to make a piping bag.
  5. Coat six wells of a doughnut pan with cooking spray.
  6. Pipe the batter into the wells using your "piping bag" (or an actual piping bag if you have one).
  7. Bake the doughnuts for 8-12 minutes or until firm.
  8. Meanwhile, combine the ingredients to make the glaze and put the glaze in the fridge.
  9. Once donuts have cooled, spread with glaze, and enjoy!
  10. Store in the fridge for up to one week or in the freezer for up to one month (without glaze).
