Ingredients
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • ¾ c almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¾ c sugar (or sugar substitutes)
  • 2 c oat flour
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp cornstarch
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Optional: chopped nuts (I recommend a mix of pecans and dry roasted peanuts), glaze
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325°
  2. Mash bananas by hand or mix with a paddle in a stand mixer. Once thoroughly mashed, add almond milk, vanilla, and sugar. Mix until smooth.
  3. Combine dry ingredients (flour through salt).
  4. Add dry to wet and mix until just combined.
  5. Spray a donut pan with nonstick spray and fill ⅔ full with batter. Keep the tops smooth for prettier donuts. If you have only one donut pan, the batter can rest at room temperature until you can bake another batch.
  6. Bake 10-14 minutes.
  7. Turn out onto a cooling rack and cool completely.
  8. Dip in glaze and cover with chopped nuts, or any other toppings you desire. If using nuts or dry sprinkle-y ingredients, I recommend drizzling more glaze on top to secure the toppings.
Notes
I like to peel and freeze the bananas and microwave briefly before use-- this will help get an entirely smooth banana mixture. If you don't have oat flour/ don't want a Gluten Free donut, it can be swapped out for white whole wheat or whole wheat pastry flour, but then leave out the cornstarch.
