Description

Discover quick, kid-friendly baked donut bites made with oats and banana. These easy recipes are perfect for after-school snacks or simple kitchen activities.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup quick cook oats
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 11/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 3 over ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup butter, melted and cooled to room temperature (2 sticks)
  • 2 eggs
  • Glaze: 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • Glaze: 2 tbsp milk
  • Topping: 1/4 cup oats

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F or set your mini-donut maker to ready.
  2. Pour milk and oats into a small bowl. Allow the oats to soak up the milk for at least 5 to 10 minutes.
  3. In a larger bowl, add flour, sugar, and baking powder. Whisk these dry ingredients to combine. Make a well in the center.
  4. Whisk in the mashed bananas, eggs, then the cooled butter into the well.
  5. Add in your soaked oats and milk mixture. Whisk until you have a smooth batter with all ingredients combined.
  6. Spray donut pans with cooking spray or spray your donut wells in your maker.
  7. Fill the pans or maker wells 3/4 full with batter.
  8. Bake full size donuts for 8 to 10 minutes, or cook mini donuts in your maker for 6 to 7 minutes.
  9. Remove the donut bites and allow them to cool on a wire rack.
  10. Repeat the baking process until you use all the batter.

Notes

  • For the glaze, whisk the confectioners sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk together until smooth. Drizzle over cooled donut bites and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup of oats.
  • These bites are great for meal prep; store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
