Ingredients
- 1 cup Kodiak Cake Flapjack and Waffle Mix
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, vanilla flavor or plain (1 5.5 oz. container)
- 3/4 cup water
- 3-4 Tbsp. hemp hearts (optional, or sub with chia seeds)
- Maple syrup or honey (optional)
Add-In Ideas
- Blueberries
- Diced strawberries or raspberries
- Mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Measure out 1 cup of Kodiak Cake Pancake Mix and pour it into a bowl. Add a 5.5 ounce container of yogurt, water, and hemp hearts. Mix until well combined.
- Spray a silicone or aluminum donut mold with cooking spray. Pour the batter into the molds and use a spoon to distribute the batter evenly throughout each mold, about 3/4 full (should make about 6 donuts - it's okay if you overfill).
- Add in some diced strawberries or raspberries, blueberries, or mini chocolate chips. Note: cooking time may be longer if fresh fruit is added due to the water content.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, checking around the 12-15 minute mark for doneness.
- Pull the donuts out of the oven and allow to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes. Carefully remove the donuts when cooled - using a knife around the edges if needed.
- Brush some maple syrup around the edges of each donut. Store in an airtight container for 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months!
Notes
- Pour the pancake batter into a piping bag for easy filling.
- Add more water for thinner pancake donuts.
- Don't have a donut mold? Just use this batter to make pancakes!
