Here’s the ultimate, low in added sugar, chocolate peanut butter banana donuts! If you love banana bread, you’re going to love this recipe! Think moist banana bread with chocolate chips in donut form that’s dipped in a Peanut Butter and Chocolate swirl glaze! Talk about heavenly! It’s truly what every donut dreams to be when they grow up!!!
This recipe is low in added sugar! The entire recipe consists of 2 tablespoons of Confectioners Sugar which is used in the Peanut Butter Glaze. If you prefer not to use any sugar, you can. Note however, that the glaze will be sticky as opposed to dry to the touch.
Here‘s a short Instagram Reel showing how these yummy donuts are made.
If you are a peanut butter and banana fan, I highly recommend you make these donuts this weekend!   Despite the fact that they are low in added sugar, I assure you that your taste buds will be fooled! And if you’re an all around donut fan, then you’ll want to check out this recipe for Strawberry Glazed Oven Baked Yeast Donuts, and this recipe recipe for crispy and fluffy Cinnamon Donut Holes!
