Instructions

In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, whey protein, casein protein, cocoa powder, granulated erythritol, and salt.
Add Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients.
Mix until a dough forms. It may be dry and crumbly initially; press the dough into the remaining powders until it forms a cohesive ball.
Do not knead the dough. The consistency should be soft and slightly sticky.
Place the dough in the freezer for a few minutes until it's less sticky.
Prepare the icing by blending 30g of granulated erythritol until powdered. Add drops of water or almond milk until an icing consistency is formed.
Weigh the dough and divide it into 25 equal portions (approximately 10g each).
Roll each portion into a ball to form the donut holes.
Spray the donut holes with cooking spray and place them in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are spaced evenly and not touching.
Air fry at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes.
Remove the donut holes from the air fryer.
Toss the warm donut holes in the prepared icing until coated.

Chef's Notes & Tips

Tip 1 of 2

The recipe involves a combination of casein and whey protein to achieve the best texture: casein provides moisture, while whey adds fluffiness. The creator recommends making powdered erythritol at home by blending granulated erythritol to save money.

Tip 2 of 2

This dough can be stored in the refrigerator and air-fried when ready to eat for a fresh snack.
