  • ¼ cup milk
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg

Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 350ºF and spray a donut pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set it aside.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, vegetable oil, and milk.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a smaller bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Fill Donut Pan: Transfer the batter to a piping bag or ziplock bag and pipe it into each donut cavity.
  5. Bake: Bake for 15-16 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  6. Coat Donuts: Flip the pan to release the donuts. Coat with melted butter and dip in cinnamon sugar mixture.

Notes

  • Make sure not to overmix the batter to ensure soft and fluffy donuts.
  • Feel free to add a dash of cloves or ginger for extra spice.
