You're only two ingredients away from creating a delicious dessert. That's all it takes to make speedy doughnuts. Combined with a cinnamon-sugar coating, they become a dessert worth the sweet indulgence.

A few minutes in the kitchen, some time for baking, and the doughnuts are ready to eat. They are made from ingredients that are usually at home or can be bought instantly in almost any store - bananas and flour. The fruit makes the doughnuts sweet and delicious, so there's no need to use extra sugar for the dough. The entire dessert is enveloped in a sweet cinnamon-sugar coating. Simply finger-licking good!

Air fryer dessert

An air fryer, a kitchen appliance, has revolutionised how food is prepared. In recent years, it has become very popular, and more people are using this equipment in their kitchens. It often replaces the oven, shortening cooking times. It also provides some savings as it uses less electricity.

Although the air fryer might be associated primarily with roasted meats or fries, it can also successfully prepare desserts like muffins, small cakes, or sweet banana doughnuts.

Banana doughnuts can be easily prepared with an air fryer. They take a few minutes, two basic ingredients, and some cinnamon-sugar for coating, and the dessert is ready. If you don't have an air fryer, you can bake the doughnuts in an oven.

Ingredients:

  • 1 banana,
  • 90 grams of type 00 flour.

For coating: 

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter,
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon,
  • 8 tablespoons sugar.

Preparation:

Step 1. Peel the banana and mash it with a fork. Add flour and knead the dough.
