Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tp pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 eggs slightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 Tbs butter melted

Topping:

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 40Spray a 6 or 12 count donut pan with non-stick cooking spray, set aside.
  • In bowl whisk together your flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and pumpkin pie spice until combined.
  • Add in your eggs, pumpkin, vanilla, milk and butter and mix together until combined, then place in a large piping bag and cut the tip off.
  • Pipe donut batter into each well of your donut pan and place in oven to bake for 8-10 minutes until donuts spring back when touched, let cool slightly before turning out onto wire rack.
  • In bowl whisk together your sugar and cinnamon until combined, in separate bowl add melted butter. Dip your donut tops in melted butter and then into the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat, place back to set up.

Notes

  1. Beat your eggs slightly before adding to the flour mixture, this helps incorporate them well.
  2. Let your butter cool slightly before adding it to your mixture, this will help it from clumping once it hits the milk.
  3. To easily fill your piping bag, add it to a large cup and fill from there, that is how we always fill our piping bags whether it be frosting or batter.
  4. To store these donuts, keep a ziplock baggie on counter, they should last a few days, although they will get staler each day they won't be eaten.
