Chai has been my favorite flavor this season.
I decided to make some donuts out of my Ancient Nutrition chai vanilla collagen and WOW. Turned out as good as it looks. This donut recipe is seriously SO easy and you can load them up with any protein of your choice or you can just you almond flour and opt out the protein all together! (you won't get the chai flavor if you do that but they'll still turn out!)
I've made these with chocolate, coffee flavor, vanilla and more! Basically you'll need one whole cup of "flour" I use almond flour always. If you want to add protein just lessen the flour and substitute protein. For example, you can add 1/4 cup protein of choice and only use 3/4 cup almond flour. Or you can do 1/2 and 1/2. I wouldn't recommend doing all protein but you can split them and it will still turn out!
If you love these are much as I do, share your creation with me on instagram!
