Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a donut pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
Into the blender, add the wet ingredients as well as the banana. Blend on low until smooth.
Add the dry ingredients and blend until completely smooth. Let the batter sit for 10 minutes before baking.
Fill the donut rounds 2/3 of the way full. Bake on the center rack for 10 - 11 minutes until a toothpick inserted into one of the donuts comes out clean.
Turn out donuts onto a wire rack and cool for 10 - 15 minutes.
While cooling, prepare the glaze by melting the chocolate chips with the coconut oil. Whisk in the cocoa powder. Dunk the donuts into the glaze, letting the extra drip off and then roll them into your desired toppings.
Cool completely before enjoying.
