Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 12-hole donut pan with cooking spray to grease.
In a big bowl, whisk dry ingredients - flour, vanilla and unflavored protein powder, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cloves, baking soda and baking powder.
In another bowl whisk wet ingredients - applesauce, milk, molasses, melted butter, egg.
Add wet mix to dry and whisk until just combined.
Divide mixture evenly among donut pan cavities, filling about ⅔-¾ way up.
Bake for 12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the donut comes out clean.
Let cool for 5 minutes and remove from pan. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool.
Glaze:
Let donuts cool completely.
In a bowl, whisk almond butter, protein powder and milk (adding little at a time) until smooth.
Dunk donuts in glaze, set down, and top with holiday sprinkles.
