Healthy Jelly-Filled Donuts

I have been on a contest diet prep plan since April 1st with NO cheat meals. I have been making significant gains and wonderful progress with my new coach but the cravings have officially begun. Instead of sitting around and engaging in dangerous food porn activities, I have decided that any food I desire can be made healthy. Instead of making a list of foods to eat after competition, I have begun making a list of foods to make "fitwhitt style". In other words, guiltless, good for you, fun and of course most importantly clean recipes. I was having a strong desire for a donut so I began to think about how to make a healthy simple version.

Ingredients
1 cup liquid egg whites
1/3 cup old fashioned oats
extract flavoring of choice
1-4 packets stevia
1 tbsp. of sugar free jelly
1 Wilton brownie pop mold

Instructions
1) Add egg whites, oats, flavoring and sweeteners to a blender and blend until smooth. I use my magic bullet for this.
2) Spray a light coat of non stick spray into "brownie pods"
3) Pour mixture into pods. Should fill all 8 equally.
4) Insert a small amount of jelly into each pod.
5) Bake at 350 for approx. 15-20 min or until eggs are cooked. Mine would boil over the top a little bit.

Pop out and cool. You can dip them in PB2 to make them peanut butter and jelly flavored or use sugar free syrup as well. I also like to take my cinnamon graham cracker whey protein powder and mix with water till I have the consistency of icing. I then use the protein powder icing on the donuts.

I found sugar free jelly that is naturally sweetened with Truvia at my local WalMart. You can check the Smucker's website to see if it is available near you.

Hope you enjoy this healthy and fun way to eat clean. Make sure your food is always a source of nutrient fuel for your body. It is not about what you WANT to eat but what your body NEEDS to eat as fuel. Change your mindset about the power of food and it's nutrients to question what your food can do for you!
