Banana Dog Donuts
Here’s how to make these delicious banana dog donuts that your pup will love!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup oats
- 1/3 cup Peanut butter plus more for drizzling
- 1 banana
- 1 egg
Step-By-Step Instructions
Step 1 – Preheat The Oven
Start by preheating the oven to 350° F.
You want the oven nice and hot so that the donut batter begins to cook as soon as you place the trays in the oven. Alternatively, you may cook these in an air fryer.
Step 2 – Prepare The Donut Tins
You don’t want the donuts to stick to the tins as they bake, so grease each cup thoroughly with a little melted coconut oil.
Set the tin aside.
Step 3 Blend Oats To Make Oat Flour
Blend the oats in a food processor or high speed blender to make the oat flour.
Step 4 – Combine The Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, mash the banana and combine with the oat flour, egg and peanut butter. You can also do this in a stand mixer or processor.
Step 5 – Put The Batter In The Donut Tins
Add equal quantities of batter to each cup of the donut tins. Be careful not to overfill the tins or the batter might overflow into the oven and make a horrible mess!
Step 6 – Bake!
Put the loaded donut tins into the hot oven and bake at 350° F for between 15 to 20 minutes.
To make sure that the donuts are cooked, slide a clean toothpick into one of the donuts. If the toothpick comes out clean, the donuts are cooked.
Step 7 – Remove The Donuts From The Baking Trays
Allow the donuts to cool for a few minutes in the baking trays. Once the donuts are cool enough to handle, remove them from the tin and set them on a wire rack to cool.
Step 8 – Decorate The Donuts
Drizzle the donuts with more peanut butter and a few oat flakes.

I believe this recipe is missing some details. It only shows 4 ingredients but then mentions adding honey, melted coconut oil and flour to the recipe later on. How much is needed?
