Pancake Mix Pumpkin Donuts
A deliciously baked donut using protein pancake mix and pumpkin puree, pumpkin spices, and chocolate chips! Try my new recipe for these pancake mix pumpkin donuts!
Ingredients
2 cups (about 200g) protein pancake mix; I used Naked Nutrition Naked Cake mix
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 tablespoon raw sugar
1/2 cup whole milk (or your preferred milk source)
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips (optional)
Topping:
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (or pumpkin pie spice)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Farenheit. Set aside a greased donut mold pan.
In a large mixing bowl combine the dry ingredients. Set aside. In a medium mixing bowl combine all of the wet ingredients; stir well until thoroughly mixed. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop the donut batter into the molds (or use a Ziploc bag with a corner snipped off to squeeze out). Fill to the top of the mold.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cooked in the middle. Test it by inserting a knife or toothpick into the donut; if it comes out clean it should be done. While the donuts bake, combine the brown sugar and spice in a shallow bowl. Set aside.
Once the donuts are cooked in the middle, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack or additional cookie sheet. Once cooler to the touch, dip in the brown sugar topping to coat.
Notes
These donuts provide 15 grams of protein each! Want to cut down on sugar? Omit the brown sugar coating. To keep the donuts lasting longer than on the shelf for a couple days, refrigerate them in a storage container for up to a week.
