Cheat on Donuts with Questified Peanut Butter Candy Donuts
The only thing getting dunked around here is the myth that tasty treats can’t also crush your protein goals. Almond flour, Greek yogurt, and peanut butter just teamed up to create a donut so fluffy it practically levitates. Then we hit it with a sugar-free chocolate glaze and peanut butter candy bits that’ll make your taste buds do a double-take. Dunkers, please step aside. Donuts this good get savored, not soaked.
