Prutella pronuts recipe

Donuts may be one of the least health-conscious foods known to man, but that was before they were given a magical clean makeover and turned into protein donuts – AKA pronuts. Using healthier alternatives, such as stevia instead of sugar and Greek yoghurt instead of cream, Homer Simpson’s snack of choice can now be seen as a viable pre- or post-gym snack. Well, kind of. Here’s how to make them…

Ingredients

1 scoop Muscle Food Chocolate Whey

¼ cup Fage 0% fat Greek yoghurt

2tbsp coconut flour

1tsp baking powder

1 whole egg

1tbsp stevia

½ cup oat flour

6-10 drops of zero calorie liquid stevia

2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk

A handful of dark chocolate chips

For the topping

1 cup of Muscle Food Prutella

1tsp cocoa powder

100g zero calorie icing sugar replacement

65g real butter

Method 

Preheat your oven to 195°C.

Simply combine all the ingredients in a bowl, whisk until smooth and pour into a greased donut tin.

Bake for ten minutes.

Leave to cool and then remove protein donuts from the tin.

For the topping

In a large bowl, combine 1 cup of Muscle Food Prutella with a teaspoon of cocoa powder, 100g zero calorie icing sugar replacement and 65g real butter.

Using the back of a spoon, mix the ingredients together until smooth.

Then using an electric whisk, whizz up the mixture for about five minutes until it becomes light and fluffy and has more volume.

Then coat the top and sides of the donuts with the frosting using a teaspoon.

Once covered, sprinkle over some chopped hazelnuts and then drizzle over your choice of dark chocolate.
