Healthy Peanut Butter Glazed Donuts
The first Friday of June is National Donut Day, established to honor female volunteers who served donuts to soldiers during WWI. What better way to celebrate than by whipping up a batch of these healthy and delicious homemade protein donuts?
Now, I know what you’re thinking: Making protein donuts at home never works—the texture is wonky, they fail to rise—but not this recipe! The secret ingredient is apple cider vinegar, which reacts with baking powder to create the lighter, fluffier batter that makes these donuts truly special. Signature Oatmeal Cookie Whey protein powder helps balance out the macros, and a quick and easy natural peanut butter glaze keeps this recipe low-sugar but still deliciously decadent. One bite and you’ll see, these donuts have a melt-in-your mouth, cake-like crumb that is even better than the real thing!

Healthy Greek Yogurt Brownies
“Healthy brownies” may sound too good to be true, but with the triple-chocolate combination of cocoa powder, bittersweet morsels, and Signature Chocolate Whey, these brownies are the real deal. Almond flour helps keep the carbs low, while Greek yogurt and coconut oil provide healthy fats and protein. Chopped Cookies and Cream Crunch bar adds an extra chocolate cookie surprise when you bite into these rich and delicious protein brownies. Whip up a batch to take to your next summer barbecue, or save them all for your post-workout stash!
