2g BiCarb Soda
150g Low Fat Greek Yoghurt

90g Biscoff

Method:
Preheat oven to 180C and prep a patty tin (or dome dessert mould).
Sieve flour, protein powder, sweetener, baking powder and bicarb into a mixing bowl and whisk to avoid clumping.
Add yoghurt, egg white and vanilla essence and stir to create your dough. (You can also add any flavdrops here if you want to!)
Spoon mixture equally into 6 domes and place in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until cooked, then remove to cool.
While donuts are cooling, take the jar of Biscoff out of the cupboard and have a mental battle with yourself because you just want to eat it out of the jar.
Once doughnuts have cooled and you’ve had your battles, cut into your donut with a knife to create a pocket, then pipe (or spoon) biscoff into the middle of your donut.
Take a step back, realise you’ve just made a few lil beauties and then just annihilate each and every one, because they’re low calories.
