Ingredients
– 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2-3 medium bananas)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Powdered sugar, for dusting
Instructions
1. 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
2. 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. 3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
4. 4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract until well combined.
5. 5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
6. 6. Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
7. 7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. 8. Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. 9. Once cooled, lightly dust the Banana Bread Donuts with powdered sugar and serve.
Notes
For a fun twist, try dipping the cooled donuts in a simple glaze or coating them in cinnamon-sugar mixture. These donuts can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
