Some Tips For Baked Biscoff Doughnuts with Protein Powder:

These protein powder biscoffdoughnuts are super easy to make, and here’s some tips to get them right!

Use whey-casein protein powder as specified; It absorbs more liquid. If you use whey, use less liquid.

Make sure your biscoff donut mixture has enough moisture in it.
Protein powder is quite absorbent and if the wet ingredients are too little, the donuts will be dry! The mix should be like a slightly runny brownie batter.

Taste the batter and see if you need some extra sweetener. I’d recommend using stevia powder to maintain the consistency of the batter and have low sugar biscoff donut.

Use room temperature egg and yogurt so they mix well with the dry ingredients.

Be sure to grease the donut pan so the baked s’mores donuts come off easily.

Let the donuts cool completely before assembling.

How to store Homemade Baked Speculoos Cookie Donuts?

These homemade baked speculoos cookie donuts keep really well in the fridge, freezer, or even at room temperature.

Store speculoos doughnuts at room temperature, for 1-2 days in an airtight container, or 5 days in the fridge.

Another option is to place the speculoos protein doughnuts in freezer-safe zipper bags and freeze for up to 2 months.
