Mini Donut Balls

Last week I brought to you my Banana Bread Bites recipe which was created with the help of a Cake Pop maker. Well I decided I should probably provide more recipes using the same machine  to give you real value for money out of your machine.

These are similar to my Cinnamon Donuts recipe that I recently tweaked and improved. If you have saved that recipe somewhere I suggest updating it when you get a moment. The new recipe is even better!

This are best served warm but make for  great party food or lunchbox filler. Just serve the day of making them to ensure they are soft and fluffy.
