  • 1 tsp (5g) baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp (3g) baking soda
  • 1 tbsp (6g) pumpkin pie spice
  • 0.5 tsp (3g) salt
  • 0.5 cup (120ml) pumpkin puree
  • 1 large egg (50g)
  • 0.33 cup (80ml) melted unsalted butter, cooled

  • 2 tbsp (30ml) pure maple syrup

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a 12-cavity donut pan with non-stick spray or melted butter.
  2. Whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin spice, and salt in a large bowl until no clumps remain.
  3. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter, and milk.
  4. Use a spatula to fold the ingredients together just until combined; do not over-mix.
  5. Transfer batter into a piping bag and fill each donut cavity about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the tops spring back when lightly touched.
  7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
  8. While still warm, dip the donuts into melted butter and toss in a mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until coated.
  9. Optional: Whisk powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk together to create a glaze and drizzle over the finished donuts.
