Banana Bread Doughnuts
Ever stuck in a situation where you’re struggling to pick between eating banana bread or a donut? Well this is the recipe for you!
These donuts are ridiculously good, and an absolute doddle to make. They’re sweet and cinnamonny and taste just like banana bread, but with the satisfying bite of a donut. The only difficult part is not eating them all as soon as they’re out the oven!
Plus, they’re baked - so not too naughty! In fact, with all those bananas and saltanas, it’s practically a fruit salad.
