Oh man was I shook by how spot-on these smores donuts turned out; Like for real! They really have that S'mores vibe with the grahams and all of it; Inside and out!

A really healthy unique protein donut recipe here though since its got no butter or oil or sugar, and actually has graham crackers inside the donut too.

Ingredients For S'mores Protein Donuts

These s'mores protein donuts are made with simple and healthy ingredients for an easy and indulgent dessert with no guilt!

  • Whole Wheat Pastry Flour - or a regular all purpose flour
  • Chocolate Protein Powder - This adds in sweetness for a recipe with no added sugar.
    I used Quest Nutrition Chocolate Protein Powder for this donut recipe since it's whey-casein and bakes well.
  • Unsweetened Cocoa
  • Baking Powder
  • Unsweetened Applesauce - Replaces the fat that's in most donut recipes. 
  • Egg Whites
  • Non-fat Greek Yogurt
  • Crushed Graham Crackers or Biscuits (use gluten free if you need)

And for the Frosting on these Baked Smores Donuts

  • Non-fat Greek Yogurt
  • Vanilla Protein Powder; I used Whey-Casein Quest Nutrition again.

And then the S'mores effect on these protein powder donuts:

  • Graham Crackers
  • Mini Marshmallows
  • Hershey's Chocolate Bar

Some Tips For Baked S'mores Doughnuts with Protein Powder:

These smores protein doughnuts are super easy to make, and here's some tips to get them right!

  • Use whey-casein protein powder as specified; It absorbs more liquid. If you use whey, use less liquid.
  • Make sure your mixture has enough moisture in it.
    Protein powder is quite absorbent and if the wet ingredients are too little, the donuts will be dry! The mix should be like a slightly runny brownie batter.
  • Taste the batter and see if you need some extra sweetener. I'd recommend using stevia powder to maintain the consistency of the batter and have low sugar smores donut.
  • Use room temperature egg whites and yogurt so they mix well with the dry ingredients.
  • Be sure to grease the donut pan so the baked s'mores donuts come off easily.
  • Let the donuts cool completely before assembling.

How to store Homemade Baked S'mores Donuts?

These homemade baked s'mores donuts keep really well in the fridge, freezer, or even at room temperature.

Store s'mores doughnuts at room temperature, for 1-2 days in an airtight container, or 5 days in the fridge.

Another option is to place the s'mores protein doughnuts in freezer-safe zipper bags and freeze for up to 2 months.

Alternatives for a Healthy S'mores Donuts Recipe

I made this low calorie, low fat and healthy smores donuts recipe with this particular ingredient list, but here's some options to try:

  • Whole Wheat Pastry Flour: 1:1 Gluten Free Baking Flour or All purpose flour in the same amount by weight not cups.
  • Chocolate Protein Powder: Use a Vanilla
  • Applesauce: Mashed Banana or Pumpkin Puree
  • Greek Yogurt: Coconut Yogurt

For the topping:

  • Mini Marhmallows: Regular marshmallows, or Vegan marshmallows if needed
  • Graham Crackers: Gluten-free grahams
  • Hershey's Chocolate: Sugar free chocolate or Vegan chocolate as needed
