Make your own protein donut and avoid the excess fat and sugar in regular donuts.
It’s all good to eat regular donuts in moderation, but it’s nice to have an alternative that is high in protein that actually leaves you feeling satisfied!
Let’s compare. One of my homemade protein donuts with a protein frosting and fun toppings versus a regular donut from a leading donut place.
I’ll share the recipe for my donuts below. Happy donut baking!!

If you do, remember to check out my e cookbooks (link below) to help support my passion to bring more delicious options to us all while we are aiming to live a fit life!
Makes 6 Donuts
For 1 donut with icing and 3g of toppings
215 calories
20g protein
27g carbohydrate
2g fat
INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED:
For the donuts
120ml 1 % milkÂ
110g unsweetened applesauce
50ml real maple syrup
1 egg
100g all purpose flour
50g whey protein powder (flavor of choice)Â
5g baking powder
For icing and toppings per individual donut
20 ml 1% milkÂ
12g whey protein powder (flavor of choice)Â
2g of instant sugar free pudding mix (flavor of choice)
3-5g of cereal, chocolate chips, sprinkles, marshmallows, mini Oreos etc..
Pro Tip: You can also tweak my recipe to make it lower in calories by using sugar free maple syrup instead of regular. It works just as well!
DIRECTIONS:
By hand or in a mixer, mix together the milk, maple syrup, applesauce, and egg.
Add in the flour, protein powder, and baking powder and combine until just incorporated. Batter will be fairly thin.
Evenly divide batter using a silicone donut baking pan. Enough batter for 6 donuts. Place the donut pan on a cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes or until cooked through.
Allow to cool and then remove from donut pan. Store for up to 4-5 days in the refrigerator.
To make the frosting mix together the milk and protein powder (and if using the instant pudding mix). That’s it. Top the donuts with the icing and your favorite toppings. To help thicken the icing, if needed, you can refrigerate it for a few minutes. Works like a charm! Fully iced and topped donuts can also be stored in the refrigerator but enjoy within 2 days of topping. I personally prefer to ice and top them just before enjoying.

The best (and easiest) toaster pastry alternative. Why is it the best? It is higher in protein, lower in fat and carbs, and is way more satiating. It also tastes great!
When it comes to weight management I have no problem enjoying store brought treats such a toaster pastries on occasion, but for my everyday, I make sure to fill most of my nutritional needs with foods that are equally as tasty, but higher in protein and way more satiating. Â

Try this quick and easy protein packed cerealwhen you don’t feel like cooking, have no meal prepped food, or are super busy.
By simply mixing a scoop of protein powder to your milk and adding in berries you take cereal to another level.
Cereal and milk by itself is usually very low in protein and a hearty bowl can pack in the calories, but then leave you feeling hungry soon after.Â
However, when you add in protein powder and high volume berries you can keep the calories in check while leaving you feeling more satisfied from this convenient and quick meal with longer sustained energy.Â
Additionally, if you are using a super tasty protein powder it makes it even more delicious than using plain milk with your cereal.
Once you try it you will never go back!
