These super simple baked chocolate protein donuts are topped with a delicious blood orange glaze and are made gluten-free and refined sugar-free!
After weeks of searching farmer’s markets, I finally found blood oranges at my local grocery store in the exotic fruit section. I never forget to check there because I’m amazed at what I discover. Last time I went searching in that section the produce manager saw me staring with a confused look on my face and came over to help. I had no idea what I was looking at but apparently it was some sort of cactus so he cut a piece for me to try and although I didn’t like it (kind of just tastes like a cucumber), I was intrigued and now I never skip that section.
Chocolate and citrus is one of my favorite flavor combinations (obviously peanut butter and chocolate is my all time fav) so when I finally got my hands on some blood oranges, I knew I had to create something using that combo thus creating these delicious chocolate blood orange glazed donuts.
For the glaze: every blood orange will be different so you may not have enough juice or too little. If your glaze is too runny, try adding more protein powder 1 teaspoon at time. If your glaze is too thick, add water or more juice 1 teaspoon at a time until you have reached your ideal consistency. Serves: 6
