Steps:

• For the doughnuts: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray two 6-well eclair pans with nonstick spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt to combine. Add the milk, egg, vanilla and butter, and mix gently until combined.
• Fill the wells of the prepared eclair pans about halfway with the batter.
• Bake until the doughnuts spring back when touched and a toothpick comes out clean, 10 minutes. Transfer the pans to a rack set over a baking sheet; let cool for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the doughnuts from the pans and let cool completely on the rack.
• For the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar and milk together until smooth.
• Dunk the doughnuts in the glaze to coat completely. Transfer to a rack and let set for 10 minutes before serving.

PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA PANINI STICKS

Steps:

• Preheat a panini maker to medium heat.
• Spread the peanut butter on one side of each slice of bread. Arrange the banana slices on top of the peanut butter on one of the slices. Top with the other slice of bread to make a sandwich. Butter the outside of the sandwich on both sides.
• Put the sandwich in the panini press and close (do not press on the panini maker or the filling will leak out). Cook according to the panini maker instructions until the bread is lightly browned and crispy. Let cool for 3 to 4 minutes, then slice into sticks and serve.

CRUNCHY MONKEY PEANUT BUTTER-BANANA STICKS

Steps:

Place the granola into a food processor and lightly process to crush up the granola, nuts, and raisins. Peel and cut each banana in half across the middle. Insert a popsicle or chop stick into the cut end of each half-banana. Spread 1 side of each banana stick with 1/4 of the peanut sauce then coat liberally with spoonfuls of granola, gently pressing it into the peanut butter. Eat the bananas right off the sticks, but serve on a plate to catch the crumbs.
