Can I use whole wheat flour instead of self-rising flour?

Yes, you can use whole wheat flour, but you will need to add baking powder and salt to achieve the right rise. Use about 1 cup of whole wheat flour with 1 to 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt.

How do I know when the donut holes are done baking?

Your donut holes are ready when they are golden brown on top and slightly firm to the touch. If you're unsure, you can insert a toothpick. If it comes out clean, they are finished.

Can I make these donut holes ahead of time?

Definitely! You can prepare the dough and shape it into balls a day in advance. Just store them in the fridge and bake when you're ready to enjoy.

Is it possible to freeze the donut holes?

These donut holes are best enjoyed fresh, but if you want to freeze them, place them in a single layer on a tray to freeze individually before transferring them to a container. Just remember that their texture may not be as fluffy once thawed.

What can I serve with these donut holes?

These banana donut holes pair wonderfully with coffee, milk, or a fruit smoothie. You can also serve them with yogurt for a sweet dip!
