@joytothefood: Raspberry protein donuts!! (recipe in caption) these sweet treats come together in just 20 minutes with an air fryer and tub of Greek yogurt! "Hands down the best donut recipe! Honestly the texture was so fluffy and light and agree the lemon zest sugar coating is exceptional. This recipe is definitely a keeper!" - from a reader 😃 follow me for a whole lot more protein boosted recipes that actually taste GOOD like this one! 💃 ingredients: - ¾ cup (170 g) plain Greek yogurt (any fat level) - 1 large egg - 2 tablespoons (30 ml) maple syrup - (30 ml) juice from 1 lemon + zest from 1 lemon (divided - zest split between dough and coating) - 1 ¼ cups (150 g) all-purpose flour, plus 1-2 tablespoons more as needed - 2 teaspoons (8 g) baking powder - ¼ teaspoon (1 g) baking soda - ½ teaspoon (3 g) salt - ½ cup (75 g) frozen raspberries (or fresh, see notes*) LEMON SUGAR COATING: - ⅓ cup (67 g) granulated sugar - zest from 1 lemon (use the other half of your lemon from above) - olive oil spray how to make: 1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F if needed. 2. In a large bowl, whisk together the ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, half the lemon zest, and lemon juice until smooth. It's easier to zest a full lemon, so zest it first, half in your large bowl for the dough and half in a small bowl for the sugar topping. 3. Add the 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, plus 1-2 tablespoons more as needed, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ¼ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt until a soft dough forms. It will be slightly sticky. If the dough is too sticky to roll, add flour one tablespoon at a time until it holds its shape. 4. Gently fold in the ½ cup frozen raspberries with a spatula. A few rough folds - you want them distributed but not smashed. 5. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. With lightly oiled hands, roll each piece into a smooth ball. 6. Spray the air fryer basket with olive oil. Place the donuts in the basket with at least half an inch of space between each. Spray the tops lightly. 7. Air fry at 350°F for 10-12 minutes, until the donuts are set on the outside and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Work in batches if needed. 8. While the donuts cook, mix the ⅓ cup granulated sugar with the remaining lemon zest in a shallow bowl. Rub the zest into the sugar with your fingers until fragrant. 9. When the donuts come out, let them rest 1-2 minutes. Spray with olive oil, then roll in the lemon sugar while warm. Eat immediately or let cool on a wire rack. *Fresh raspberries works , but you have to fold them in very carefully so they don't break up too much. Too many broken raspberries will result in a gummy donut from the extra moisture. Makes 6 donuts, here's the nutrition for one!
