For the Icing
Pre-heat oven to 350 fahrenheit and grease a silicone donut pan with cooking spray.
Mix pancake batter. In a large mixing bowl, add pancake mix, protein powder, milk & pumpkin puree and whisk until a smooth batter forms.
Bake. Pour batter into donut molds, place the donut molds onto a baking sheet and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Make the glaze. While the donuts are baking, prepare the glaze in a separate bowl whisking the dry ingredients together first, then adding the wet ingredients, continuing to whisk vigorously so no clumps of powdered sugar remain.
Cool & glaze. Once donuts have baked, allow them to cool on a wire rack for around 20 minutes before adding the glaze. To glaze, dunk the tops of the donuts into the glaze to full coat the tops.
