Baked Banana Donuts

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

These Baked Banana Donuts are topped with a simple powder sugar glaze, a sprinkle of cinnamon and taste delicious!  So tender and moist, perfect with a cup of coffee or tea.  An excellent way to use up that pesky overripe banana sitting on your kitchen counter.

Baked Banana Donuts with powdered sugar glaze and a sprinkle of cinnamonI always seem to have a stray banana or two that has past it’s prime.  That’s okay with me, I just freeze them for future baking.  I also do that with buttermilk since I seem to have a hard time finding a small container of it. This week I had a very ripe banana on the counter and buttermilk in the fridge leftover from cinnamon rolls I made so I thought I’d make some baked banana donuts.

Glazed Baked Banana DonutsBaked banana donuts are so simple and quick to make… and they’re somewhat “healthy” too since they’re not fried, right?  That’s what I’m gonna keep telling myself.  Don’t forget, you’ll need a donut pan to make baked donuts.
