Ingredients

For the Donut Holes:

• ½ cup ripe banana (about 1 large banana)
• ¾ cup self-rising flour

For the Coating:

• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• ¼ cup unrefined sugar (or substitute with monk fruit blend for a sugar-free option)
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil (melted, or use melted vegan butter)

For Kneading:

• 2–3 teaspoons melted coconut oil

Instructions

1. Prepare the Dough:
   Mash the banana into a smooth puree until you have ½ cup. Add the self-rising flour and stir with a rubber spatula until it starts to form lumps. Oil your hands and knead the mixture to form a sticky dough ball. If the dough is too moist, add up to 2–3 tablespoons more flour, but avoid over-flouring.
2. Shape the Donut Holes:
   Grease your hands with melted coconut oil. Take about a tablespoon of dough, roll it into a ball, and place it on a plate lined with parchment paper. Repeat until all the dough is shaped into balls.
3. Air Fry:
   Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (180°C). Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil and place the donut holes inside, leaving about 1 inch (3 cm) between each. Air fry for 6–7 minutes or until they’re puffy and golden brown.
4. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar:
   While the donut holes are air frying, mix the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl. Once the donut holes are done, brush each warm ball with melted coconut oil using a pastry brush. Then, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat evenly.
5. Serve:
   Enjoy the donut holes warm for the best taste and texture.

Pro Tips

• Storage: Store the donut holes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• Gluten-Free Option: Replace self-rising flour with a gluten-free flour blend, ensuring it includes a leavening agent.
• Flavor Variations: Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the dough for added flavor.
