Ingredients

  

• ½ cup almond flour
• ½ cup vegan vanilla protein powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ cup nondairy milk may need up to ¼ cup more depending on the type of protein powder you use!
• ¼ cup coconut sugar can sub regular sugar

Method

 

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a donut pan. In a bowl, mix together all wet ingredients until well combined.
2. Mix in the dry ingredients until you have a donut batter. Fold in the sprinkles.
3. Spread the batter evenly into the donut molds and bake for about 15-17 min. Let cool.
4. If making the paleo frosting, melt together the coconut butter and maple syrup until combined and dip each donut into the mixture.
