White Glaze
You can be as creative as you want with this but here’s my recipe for the white vanilla peanut butter glaze.
1 scoop protein powder (vanilla)
1 scoop peanut butter
dash of milk / water
Mix in ninja blender
Spread the glaze over donuts using a spoon and top with desiccated coconut or chia seeds.
