In addition, the donuts are filled espresso powder for a conveniently edible caffeinated boost. These donuts are much healthier than ones you'd find at a cafe or eatery thanks to the inclusion of nutritious ingredients such as bananas and the fact that they are [baked rather than fried](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skinny-witch-donut). The dough is made from flour, banana, cocoa powder, spices, unsalted butter, eggs and milk. Once baked the donuts are covered in an [espresso chocolate glaze](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banana-cream-drinks) that will give the breakfast desserts a caffeinated kick.
