Ingredients
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup olive oil, or other neutral oil
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup gluten free flour, or regular all purpose flour
- 2 servings vegan chocolate protein powder, should be about 1/2 cup
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
Chocolate Frosting
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips, melted
- 1 tsp coconut oil, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F
- Start by mixing together the milk and apple cider vinegar, set aside
- Combine the granulated sugar, olive oil and milk mixture together in a large mixing bowl
- Once combined, fold in the cocoa powder and other dry ingredients
- Make sure to not overmix the batter then transfer it to a piping bag. You can use a ziploc bag and cut the corner as well
- Pipe the batter into the donut pan until all the donut molds are filled
- Bake for 12-14 minutes or until donuts have risen and a toothpick comes out clean
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 20-30 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack
- While the donuts are cooling, let's make the chocolate frosting!
- Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a small mixing bowl
- Heat for 30 seconds and stir. The chocolate will need some more time to melt, do an additional 10 seconds until it reaches a silky and smooth consistency
- Once the chocolate frosting is complete, dip the donuts into the glaze or drizzle it on top
- Top with sprinkles, flaky sea salt or anything else your heart desires
- Enjoy!
