Notes
Tips
- Always use a digital food scale for the best results.
- I use a mixing bowl and spatula to mix up the batter as this recipe is quick and easy. But, you can also use a hand mixer or stand mixer too.
- Make sure to use overly ripe banana for the best flavor.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can spoon the batter into the donut pans.
- You want to ensure donuts are cooled enough before coating them. They can be a little warm, but not hot or they will break very easily.
- Store extra baked donuts under a cake dome or in an airtight container.
- High Altitude — Bake at 400°F for 8 to 12 minutes or until, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
