Ingredients

Scale

1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour

1/2 cup coconut flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

2 ripe bananas, mashed

1/2 cup fresh strawberries, chopped

2 large eggs

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 cup almond milk (or dairy-free milk of choice)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan or use a silicone pan.
Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, mash the bananas and stir in the eggs, honey (or maple syrup), applesauce, vanilla, and almond milk. Add the chopped strawberries.
Combine: Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined (don’t overmix).
Fill the pan: Spoon the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity about 3/4 full.
Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Cool: Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, use almond milk or coconut milk in place of regular milk.
Feel free to top with powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, or drizzle with a simple glaze for extra sweetness.
These donuts are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for 2-3 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
