Ingredients For Oatmeal Protein Donuts

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

• Rolled Oats - or instant oats
• Vanilla Protein Powder - This adds in sweetness for a recipe with no added sugar.
  I used Quest Nutrition Vanilla Protein Powder for this donut recipe since it's whey-casein and bakes well.
• Baking Powder
• Unsweetened Almond Milk
• Non-fat Greek Yogurt
• Eggs

And for the Frosting on these Baked Oat Protein Donuts

• Flavored Almond Butter
  I'd recommend American Dream Nut Butter Sugar Pie Honey Chunk; Code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount.

Some Tips For Baked Oatmeal Donuts with Protein Powder:

These oatmeal protein powder donuts 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 oats donut.

• Use room temperature eggs and yogurt so they mix well with the dry ingredients.

• Be sure to grease the donut pan so the baked oats donuts come off easily.

• Let the donuts cool completely before assembling.

How to store Homemade Baked Oatmeal Protein Doughnuts?

These homemade baked oatmeal doughnuts keep really well in the fridge, freezer, or even at room temperature.

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

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