Banana Bread Chocolate Chunk Donuts

Banana Bread Chocolate Chunk Donuts

I love banana bread. I love donuts. Why not combine the two? These are irresistibly moist with a sweet banana bread flavor. And the chocolate chunks? Don’t even get me started. Best part? They are easy to make in the oven in 10 minutes!

Let’s break it down.

  • Smash those super ripe bananas with a fork.
  • Mix in all the ingredients (except egg). Mix in said egg last.
  • DONT OVERMIX!
  • I have found piping donuts with a ziplock is SO much easier than trying to spoon them in or pour from the bowl. Cut one of the bottom corners out and BOOM. Pipe ’em.
  • Cook them in the oven for 10 minutes.
  • That’s it! Then try not to choke wolfing them down like I did..

..But seriously. How can you NOT wolf them down? I have no self restraint.

Look at the chocolatey goodness. Okay, I’ll stop!
