Ingredients

• 100 grams Whey protein powder
• 150 grams All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 2 Eggs
• 100 grams Greek yogurt
• 100 grams Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 120 milliliters Milk
• 60 milliliters Coconut oil (melted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a donut baking pan with non-stick spray or a little coconut oil.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the whey protein powder, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3

In another medium-sized bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed, then whisk in the Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and gently mix until just combined to avoid over-mixing.

Step 5

Gradually stir in the milk and melted coconut oil until the batter is smooth and thick but pourable.

Step 6

Pour or pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

If desired, drizzle with additional honey or glaze of choice before serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your high-protein honey donuts as a post-workout snack or a sweet breakfast treat!
