✨ Tips for Success
💡 Start with ripe bananas — the riper they are, the sweeter and softer the dough will be.
💡 Don’t skip the chill time — it helps them firm up into donut hole texture.
💡 If dough is too sticky — add 1–2 tsp more coconut flour.
💡 If dough is too dry — add 1 tsp milk or extra mashed banana.
🔁 Ingredient Substitutions
Need to swap something? Here are easy alternatives:
Banana: Substitute 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (dough will be softer).
Freeze-Dried Strawberries: Swap for freeze-dried raspberries or blueberries.
Maple Syrup: Use honey or agave.
Vanilla Paste: Use vanilla extract.
