Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a donut pan with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, and melted butter until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, whey protein, sweetener, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well combined.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry. Stir in the water until a thick, spoonable batter forms.
  5. Spoon the batter evenly into the donut pan, smoothing the tops.
  6. Bake for 12–16 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean and the tops spring back slightly.
  7. Let the donuts cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
  8. While they cool, mix together the cream cheese, melted butter, monk fruit sweetener, and vanilla extract to make the glaze.
  9. Once donuts are fully cooled, drizzle with glaze and finish with sprinkles if you’d like.
