Baked Pumpkin Donuts with Cinnamon Sugar
Ingredients You Will Need
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup pumpkin puree
½ cup brown sugar
1 egg
½ cup milk
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup cinnamon sugar (for topping)
Step by Step Instructions
1: Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a donut pan with butter or non-stick spray.
2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
3: Mix the Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, combine pumpkin puree, brown sugar, egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth.
4: Combine and Fill
Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined do not overmix.
Spoon the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity about ¾ full.
5: Bake and Cool
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean.
Let the donuts cool for a few minutes in the pan before transferring to a wire rack.
6: Coat in Cinnamon Sugar
While still slightly warm, dip each donut into a bowl of cinnamon sugar to coat evenly.
