Easy Banana Doughnuts Food

BAKED BANANA DONUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and spray 2 non-stick six unit doughnut pans.
• In one bowl whisk together all of the dry donut ingredients, in another bowl whisk together all of the wet ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and stir together until combined.
• Spoon batter into prepared pans, filling about 3/4 full.
• Bake 12-14 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
• While baking prepare spiced sugar.
• Cool in pan for about 5 minutes, remove and generously dust donuts, both sides, with spiced sugar.
• Serve warm.

BAKED BANANA DONUTS

Steps:

• Adjust oven racks to center position and preheat oven to 425°F. Spray two 6-cavity donut pans with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter until smooth, and then beat in the sugar until light and fluffy. Blend in the egg, vanilla, mashed bananas, and sour cream until fully incorporated (batter may look curdled at this point...it will smooth out with addition of flour). Gently mix in the dry ingredients until just blended. Evenly divide the batter between the prepared donut pans.
• Bake for 7 to 9 minutes until the tops of the donuts spring back when lightly touched. Allow donuts to cool for 5 minutes in pans before turning them out onto a cooling rack.
• FOR THE CINNAMON SUGAR COATING: In a medium bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Place the melted butter in a shallow bowl. Dip one side of each donut in the butter, and then press into the cinnamon sugar. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• FOR THE CHOCOLATE GLAZE: Place a small saucepan over medium-low heat and melt together the butter and corn syrup. Remove the pot from the heat and add the chocolate chips, stirring until they are smooth and completely melted. Stir in the vanilla. If necessary, transfer to a bowl for dipping (or you can dip the donuts directly into the pot). While the glaze is still warm and thin, dip one face of each donut into the glaze. Place glaze-side-up on a plate or cooling rack. For optimal flavor and texture, serve sooner than later.

EASY BANANA DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt.
• Separately, combine the eggs, milk, olive oil and vanilla. Beat lightly.
• Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ones and mix together.
• Mash the bananas with a fork and add them to the batter.
• Heat up oil to a temperature between 360-375F.
• Using a tablespoon, pour the batter in the oil and let the doughnut cook for about 2 minutes on each side until brown, on medium heat.
• Remove them from the pan and drain them on paper towels.
• Tip: Do not crowd the doughnuts in the pan. 3-4 doughnuts should be enough for one batch.
• Serve them hot or cold dusted in powder sugar.

BANANA-CHOCOLATE CHIP MINI DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Generously coat a mini doughnut pan with cooking spray. Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and the salt in a large bowl. Whisk the mashed bananas, yogurt, vegetable oil, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla in a separate bowl. Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture until just combined; stir in the chocolate chips.
• Transfer the batter to a large resealable plastic bag and snip off one corner. Pipe the batter into the prepared pan, filling each cup almost all the way. Bake until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Let cool in the pan2 to 3 minutes; remove the doughnuts to a rack to cool completely. Letthe pan cool, then coat with more cooking spray and repeat with the remaining batter.
• Put the melted butter in a shallow bowl. Mix the granulated sugar and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon in another shallow bowl. Dip one side of each doughnut in the butter, letting the excess drip off, then immediately dip it in the cinnamon sugar. Store in an airtight container up to 2 days.
• You can also make these in a mini muffin pan; bake 8 to 10 minutes.

SUPER EASY DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Stir the vinegar into the milk, and let stand for a few minutes until thick.
• In a medium bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla until well blended. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the sugar mixture alternating with the vinegar and milk. Roll dough out on a floured surface to 1/3 inch thickness. Cut into doughnuts using a donut cutter. Let stand for about 10 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a large deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Fry doughnuts in the hot oil until golden, turning over once. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar while they are still warm, and serve immediately.
