Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 6 cavity donut pan.

In a large bowl, mash your banana until few lumps remain. Stir in the milk, nut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.

Over top of the wet ingredients, sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon and mix everything together to combine.

Evenly spoon the mixture into the 6 donut pan.

Bake in oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let cool slightly and then remove from the pan to a wire rack to cool more.

Make the cinnamon sugar coating by combining the cinnamon and sugar in a shallow bowl. Once the donuts have cooled enough to easily handle them, lightly spray each one with cooking spray and then roll them in the sugar coating. ENJOY!

Notes

Like most donuts, these don’t stay good for more than about a day and are best enjoyed soon after baking. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Banana Ripeness is Key 🍌
Use very ripe bananas (with brown spots) for maximum natural sweetness and moisture, reducing the need for extra sugar and ensuring ultra-fluffy donuts.
Room Temperature Ingredients 🌡️
Let almond milk, nut butter, and banana reach room temperature before mixing to ensure proper emulsification and prevent dense, gummy donuts.
Don't Overmix the Batter 🥄
Mix dry and wet ingredients until just combined with a few small lumps remaining; overmixing develops gluten and creates tough, chewy donuts instead of light and airy ones.
Optimal Oven Temperature 🔥
Preheat your oven to exactly 350°F and use an oven thermometer to verify accuracy, as vegan batters are sensitive to temperature fluctuations and need gentle, even heat for perfect rise.
Coat While Still Warm ✨
Apply the cinnamon-sugar coating immediately after donuts cool for 2-3 minutes while still slightly warm, allowing the sugar to adhere and create a delicious, crispy exterior.
