"What do you want to do today?" Scarlet asked her taller husband.

"I don't know. But I want something sweet." Ze'ev replied

"Of course you do. How about we make some donuts for breakfast. Does that sound like it will satisfy your sweet tooth?"

"Yes, that sounds delicious. But how do we make donuts without a fryer?"

"Well here is a recipe for baked banana donuts I found on Pinterest."

"Looks easy enough."

Ingredients
~~ For the Donuts ~~
1 3/4 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup (about 3 medium-sized) bananas, mashed
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
~~For the Spiced Sugar~~
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves

They got out the ingredients and preheated the oven to 350 degrees, and sprayed the doughnut pans.
While Ze'ev whisked together all of the dry donut ingredients, Scarlet whisked together all of the wet ingredients.

They then poured the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and stir together until it was all combined.

They used an ice cream scooper to move the batter into the donut shapes in the pan.

They put it in the oven to bake for 12-14 minutes.
While they waited they made the spiced sugar.
"Okay but now that we're down with that we still have ten minutes left. Then we have to wait 5 minutes for it to cool after that. So what do you want to do to pass the time?"

"I don't know. Maybe we can go lay on the couch and finish the new episode of My Hero Academia. That way we can still hear when the oven goes off." That is what they did. After their donuts were done they finished the episode then started watching One Piece.
