DONUT BATTER

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Add 9 Oreos to your food processor and process until all cookies are finely crushed. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the protein powder, collagen peptides, coconut flour, almond flour, crushed Oreos, and baking powder.
  4. In a small mixing bowl, beat egg and water.
  5. Add wet ingredients to your large mixing bowl. Fold ingredients together and combine well, but do not over mix.
  6. Add batter to silicone donut trays and bake for 20 minutes.
  7. Let donuts completely cool.
  8. After cooling, dip each donut in the previously made frosting.
  9. Optional: Top off frosting with slightly crushed Oreos for presentation.

*Check the donuts at the 20 minute mark by poking a toothpick through the center of each donut. If the toothpick pulls out clean, remove from oven and let cool. If the toothpick pulls out with batter, continue baking in 5 minute increments.
