  6. Use butter or coconut oil to grease the donut tray.
  7. Pour about 2 tablespoons of dough into each donut pan and make sure it is well spread.
  8. To get the Nutella neatly into the donut pan, use a medium Ziplock bag, cut a hole in one corner, and pipe the Nutella into the pan.
  9. Squeeze it all around the donut shape and push it down into the dough with the help of a spoon.
  10. Cover it with 1 or 2 more tablespoons of dough.

  14. Take each donut from both sides and dip the rounder side into the glaze.
  15. Turn them around to let the glaze set for half an hour.

Equipment

Notes

* The riper the banana, the sweeter it tastes

** 3 eggs if they are medium-small

*** Save the water that you soaked the raisins in, and use it to make Overnight Oats or Chia Pudding.

*** You can substitute the raisins with dates (45 g is about 3 large Medjool Dates or 5 of the normal ones)

****You can make oat flour yourself by processing in a food processor.
