Equipment

  • 1 Donut Tray Required! You could also bake these in a muffin try, they just won't have that donut look.
  • 1 Piping Bag OR Ziploc Bag

Ingredients
  

Donut Batter

  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp pumpkin spice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Sugar Coating

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp pumpkin spice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 F

Pumpkin Donuts

  • In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree and brown sugar.
  • Next, add the oil and milk.
  • Once smooth, add the flour and spices. Mix again until the batter is smooth.
  • Transfer the batter into a piping bag or ziplock (and snip off the corner).
  • Spray your donut tray with non-stick spray and pipe the batter into the mold.
  • Make sure to fill the mold all the way because the donuts don't rise too much.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes. The donuts should be set and bouncy.
  • Allow the donuts to cool for a few minutes before coating.

Sugar Coating

  • If you don't want your donuts to be too sweet, you could go ahead and skip this step.
  • Combine the sugar, cinnamon, and pumpkin spice.
  • Brush the melted butter on the donuts and dip them into the sugar mixture and enjoy!
