Description

Delightful baked donuts infused with protein and colorful rainbow sprinkles, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (or whole wheat/almond flour)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar (or coconut sugar)
  • 2 large eggs (or flax eggs for vegan option)
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (or protein powder)
  • ½ cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • ½ cup rainbow sprinkles (with natural colors for a healthier choice)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and sugar until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, mix the eggs, Greek yogurt, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles, saving a few for topping.
  6. Transfer the batter to a piping bag or a zip-lock bag with a corner snipped off.
  7. Fill each mold about three-quarters full.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow them to cool for a few minutes in the pan before transferring to a wire rack.
  10. Once cooled, drizzle with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and splash of milk, then top with more sprinkles.

Notes

Donuts are best when slightly underbaked for a moist texture. You can refrigerate the batter for later use.
