My son has been asking for "nanna bread" for weeks. I absolutely love Bananna Bread, but I'm never really patient enough to wait the 45 minutes to an hour to make it. Yea, I'm pretty lazy like that. So while going through some old posts, I saw my 10 minute baked doughnut hole recipe, and it hit me-- Make some 10 minute baked banana bread doughnut holes!
These little doughnut holes are so delicious- but technically, they aren't really doughnut holes. We're not frying them- we're "baking" them in a cake pop machine (if you dont have a cake pop machine you can also use a cake pop pan, but that will add about 10 minutes to the time).
These are a delicious way to eat banana bread- that even your pickiest eaters will love. They come out delicious and golden brown without over drying. And you can add a nice layer of delicious sugar to them (which we always do) because it makes them taste like the yummy doughnut hole treats we like to grab at our minor league hockey games and at the county fair.
You can also add a little cinnamon to the topping- but I like these with just a bit of sugar. These are sure to be a big hit with your whole family, for breakfast, lunch or an anytime snack!

I was searching for things to do with the over-abundance of bananas filling my freezer when I stumbled across your yummy looking recipe. You'll probably laugh, but I think I was MORE delighted with the fact that you had one very nice picture then went to the recipe - ahhhh, sweet brevity! On another blog I wanted to see a recipe for banana bread...and had to bypass 11 - yes, ELEVEN - pictures of said banana bread along with 2 videos before I got to the recipe, which included yet another picture of the bread! Come on! I want to make something, not spend so much time looking at redundant pictures that I don't have time to make the recipe by the time I get to it...
