Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 6-cavity donut pan by greasing it.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas until smooth and creamy in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Mix the wet ingredients: pumpkin puree, brown sugar, maple syrup, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter with the mashed bananas until smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and spices. Gently fold into the wet ingredients.
  5. Transfer the batter into a piping bag and fill each cavity of the donut pan about ¾ full.
  6. Bake the donuts for 14-16 minutes until they spring back when pressed and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let the donuts cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to create a glaze.
  9. Once cooled, dunk the tops of the donuts in the glaze or drizzle it over them before serving.
