Chocolate Banana Donuts...need I say more?
I found this recipe in Better Homes & Gardens Magazine. I've been craving them ever since.
ingredients
5-1/2 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 pkg. active dry yeast
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
- 3 medium bananas, mashed (1 cup)
- 2 eggs, plus 2 egg yolks
- Vegetable oil for deep-fat frying
- 1 recipe Glaze (below)
directions
1. In bowl combine 1-1/2 cups of the flour, the sugar, yeast, and 1 tsp. salt; set aside. In saucepan combine milk and butter. Heat until warm (125 degrees F). Add to flour mixture. Add bananas, eggs, and yolks. With mixer, beat on medium 2 minutes. Stir in 3-1/2 cups flour, adding additional flour 1/4 cup at a time. (Dough will be sticky.) Transfer to a buttered bowl; turn to coat surface. Cover; let rise 1 hour or until doubled.
2. On floured surface roll dough to 3/8-inch thickness. Cut with floured 2-1/2-inch doughnut cutter. Reroll dough and repeat. Place cutouts on baking sheet. Cover; let rise 30 minutes or until doubled.
3. Fry a few at a time in hot oil (365 degrees F) for 2 minutes or until golden; turning once. Remove with slotted spoon; drain. Dip in glaze. Makes 30 doughnuts plus holes.
Glaze: In microwave-safe bowl combine 1/2 cup semi- sweet chocolate pieces, 1/4 cup whipping cream, and 2 Tbsp. butter. Microwave 1 minute; stir. Microwave 30 seconds more. Whisk in 3/4 cup powdered sugar until smooth and 2 tsp. light-color corn syrup.
