Extremely moist and flavorful banana bread donuts with a delicious cream cheese frosting! Add a pinch of chopped nuts for a nice little crunch. The base of banana bread donut consists of simple, everyday ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry. You will need: butter, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, an egg and ripe bananas. For the icing, you need a block of very tender cream cheese, pastry chef’s sugar, pinch of salt and cinnamon and chopped nuts. If you are allergic to nuts or if you are not a fan, you can ignore them. I love the tightening they add!
