INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup Pumpkin Puree (122g)
1/2 cup Almond Flour (56g)
1 large Egg (50g)
2 scoops Vanilla Whey Protein Isolate (approx. 60g total)
1 tbsp Maple Syrup (20g)
1 tsp Baking Powder (4g)
1 tsp Pumpkin Spice (2g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, egg, and maple syrup. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Sift in the almond flour, whey protein isolate, baking powder, and pumpkin spice to avoid clumps. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix to keep the donuts light and fluffy.
Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each mold about 3/4 full. Smooth the tops with a spatula if needed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean. The donuts should be firm to the touch.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the donuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
