Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and grease a mini metal donut pan with melted butter, oil, or baking spray.
2
In a large bowl whisk together the mashed banana, melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar.
3
Mix in the egg and vanilla.
4
Whisk in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until fully combined.
5
Transfer the batter to a piping bag, then snip the end off and pipe the batter into each donut cavity about half way full. Careful not to over-fill! Alternatively, you can spoon the batter into the cavities, but it will be a little messy.
6
Bake the donuts for about 10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
7
Transfer donuts to wire rack to cool completely before dipping in the chocolate glaze.
8
In a small bowl, heat the heavy cream in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
9
Add in the chocolate and stir until fully combined and smooth.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Banana Ripeness is Critical 🍌
    Use bananas with brown spots and slightly soft texture for maximum sweetness and moisture; overripe bananas (mostly brown) yield the best flavor and require less added sugar.
  • One-Bowl Mixing Prevents Overmixing 🥣
    Mix all wet ingredients together first, then gently fold in dry ingredients until just combined to avoid developing gluten, which creates tough, dense donuts instead of tender ones.
  • Fill Donut Pans Strategically 🍩
    Use a piping bag or squeeze bottle to fill your donut molds two-thirds full; this prevents overflow and ensures even cooking with perfectly shaped donuts.
  • Chocolate Glaze Temperature Matters 🍫
    Cool your chocolate glaze to 90-95°F before dipping warm donuts—it will set smoothly and coat evenly without sliding off or becoming too thick.
  • Cooling Strategy Ensures Best Results ❄️
    Let donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack for complete cooling before glazing; this prevents sticking and creates the ideal texture for dipping.
