Ingredients

1 cup Chocolate Protein Pancake Mix
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp sweetener (stevia, monk fruit, or your preference)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup milk (unsweetened almond milk or your choice)
2 tbsp Greek yogurt (for frosting)
1 tbsp low-fat cream cheese (for frosting)
15 g chocolate protein powder (1/2 scoop, for frosting)
1 tsp natural peanut butter (for caramel)
2 tsp sugar-free maple syrup (for caramel)
2 tbsp crushed peanuts (for topping)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease silicone donut moulds.

Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the Chocolate Protein Pancake Mix, cocoa powder, sweetener, and baking powder.

Step 3: Add the milk and whisk until you have a smooth, pourable batter with no lumps.

Step 4: Divide the batter evenly between the donut moulds, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 5: Bake for 12-15 minutes until the donuts spring back when lightly touched. Cool completely in the moulds before removing.

Step 6: For the frosting, mix Greek yogurt, cream cheese, and chocolate protein powder until smooth. Add 1-2 tsp milk if needed to reach spreading consistency.

Step 7: For the caramel, whisk together peanut butter and maple syrup until smooth and caramel-like.

Step 8: Spread frosting on cooled donuts, drizzle with caramel, and sprinkle with crushed peanuts.

💡 Tips

Pro tip: Don't overfill the moulds - the donuts will rise during baking. Store frosted donuts in the fridge for up to 3 days.
