Ingredients

  • 1/4 C 28g Coconut Flour
  • 1 scoop 31g Vanilla Protein Powder*
  • 2 Tbsp 10g Unsweetened Dark Cocoa Powder
  • 2 1/2 Tbsp 22g Sugar Free Chocolate Fudge Pudding Mix
  • 1 Tbsp 9g Swerve Confectioners (or powdered erythritol)
  • 1/2 C 113g Vanilla Fat Free Greek Yogurt
  • 1 Egg

For Rolling the Donut Holes After Baking

Instructions

  • Preheat an oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Add the Greek yogurt and egg to the dry ingredients and stir until you have a giant ball of dough. (I use a rubber spatula and use a folding, pressing movement to incorporate any remaining dry ingredients.)
  • Once you have the ball of dough, pinch off 8 smaller balls and place them on the baking sheet.
  • Using your hands (spray them cooking spray if the dough is sticking), roll the balls between your hands until smooth.
  • Bake for 14-16 minutes or until the donut holes are cooked through.
  • Allow the donut holes to cool slightly before rolling them in the additional powdered sugar.

Notes

Each donut hole has 1 Smart Point.
