Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup protein powder (chocolate flavor)
- 0.25 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (plain, non-fat)
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil (melted)
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons stevia or preferred sweetener
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips (for glaze)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, protein powder, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and stevia.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, almond milk, and melted coconut oil. Mix until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring smoothly until you have a thick, lump-free batter. Fold in the dark chocolate chips.
Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each donut cavity about three-quarters full with the batter.
Bake the donuts in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
While the donuts are cooling, make the chocolate glaze. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
Dip the top of each cooled donut into the chocolate glaze and return to the wire rack. Let the glaze set before serving.
