Ingredients
For the Fritter
- 2 tbsp (11 g) whey protein powder vanilla
- 2 tbsp (11 g) casein protein powder vanilla
- 3 tbsp (18 g) oat flour
- 1 tbsp (9 g) tapioca flour or cornstarch
- ¼ tsp (1 g) baking powder
- ½ medium (60 g) apple
- 1 tbsp (14 g) butter
- ¼ cup (50 g) plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp (4 g) cinnamon
- 1 tbsp (15 g) brown sugar
For the Frosting
- 3 tbsp (25 g) powdered sugar
- 1 tsp (5 ml) milk
Instructions
For the Fritter
- NOTE: If you have the pancake mix from the protein pancakes premade (which you should 😎) you can measure out 50g of it and use it here.
- Mix all of the dry ingredients for the fritter together so no clumps remain.
- Cut the butter into small pieces and press it into the flour mixture with a fork until it is incorporated.
- Add in the apple and Greek yogurt and mix until completely hydrated.
- Cut out two rectangular pieces of parchment paper about 5 inches by 3 inches. Spray lightly with oil.
- Divide the dough into two halves and spread out on each piece of parchment.
- Preheat your air fryer to 325°F on the air fry setting for 15 minutes.
- Spray the top of each fritter with oil and add to the air fryer. You could probably bake these but I would guess they will come out more bread like if you do. It may take longer in the oven.
- Keep an eye on the fritters and flip them over about half way through or when the top has browned evenly.
For the Frosting
- Mix the powdered sugar and milk together.
- Top each fritter with frosting.

These are amazing. Healthy by dessert standards, but sweet enough to make it feel like junk food.
thank you!
This is the first dessert I have made with protein powder that actually turned out well. I added a lot more cinnamon by accident and it turned out amazing. Will be my go to protein dessert/breakfast.
Glad you liked it
