Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a donut pan with vegetable oil spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt until thoroughly combined.

In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, granulated sugar, eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk well until the mixture is smooth and homogenous.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.

Step 5

Fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Carefully spoon or pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the donuts are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy these protein-packed treats as a satisfying and healthy snack!
