Banana Maple Glazed Donuts (GLuten Free, Dairy Free)

I was making banana bread the other night (I promised some co workers that I would bring in a treat for an early meeting). Then, turns out, I accidentally posted in a larger group channel that I would bake for them. (Insert panic mode) Sometimes mistakes lead to great things, and thats how these paleo banana maple glaze donuts were born!

I quickly scrambled when I got home since I was missing ingredients for two loaves of banana bread. Thats when I decided to give the donuts a try. Also I have had the jar of maple butter from Trader Joes in my fridge for a bit now, and decided it was time to do something with it.

This recipe is super simple. Requires one bowl, and for the glaze you dont have to have any artistic skills like you do sometimes with icing. 

I also used silicon donut trays (which makes clean up easier and also require no cooking spray)

Banana Maple Glazed Donuts:

Ingredients:

• 2 bananas mashed
• 1/2 cup creamy almond butter

• 3 eggs 
• 3 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tbsp coconut oil (melted)
• 1/3 cup cassava flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 cup enjoy life chocolate chips (mini)
• Trader Joes Maple butter for the glaze (optional)

Directions: (makes about 12-14)

1.) Preheat oven to 375. 
2.) Mix wet ingredients, and then add in dry ingredients. 
3.) Fold in mini chips
4.) Add batter to donut trays (if using silicon ones above dont need to spray).  I scooped 1/4 cup into each holder.
5.) bake for 15-16 min. Until tops are golden brown and if poked with a toothpick comes out clean.
6.) Let them cool for for 5 minutes and then place them on a wire rack to cool for another 10,
7.) with a butter knife add a 1/2 tbsp of maple butter to the top of each one (it will dry as a clear glaze). You can also drizzle with maple syrup if you dont have a TJ's nearby.  

Enjoy! <3
