I love to make these mini coconut sugar donuts! I find the protein powder is a great addition to making a sweet treat into a nutritious delight! I feel it gives me the energy I need for the morning and also works as a great pick-me-up snack. They are easy to make and require few ingredients.

Ingredients for Donuts

3/4 cup oat flour

3/4 cup vanilla protein powder

1/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1 flax egg

1 ripe banana

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 Tbsp maple syrup

1/2 cup Califia Almond milk for Donuts

1 Tbsp Justin’s Cinnamon Almond Butter

Pinch of Sea Salt

Coconut oil spray for Donut Pan

Ingredients for Topping

1 Tbsp Vegan Butter

1/4 cup of Califia Almond milk

1/3 cup of Coconut Sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 and measure ingredients.

Combine wet ingredients in Vitamix or high-speed blender. Alternatively, you can also use a wooden spoon and mix well.

Lightly spray donut pan with coconut oil and add dough, bake 20-22 minutes in the oven. I used a mini treats iron that bakes them in a few minutes.

To make the topping:

Melt vegan butter and add almond milk - whisking until combined.

Lightly dip donuts once cooled from baking into bowl of butter and almond milk and then roll in coconut sugar until covered!

Enjoy!
