Baked Pumpkin Donuts
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tsp Pumpkin pie spice
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- 1 can Farmer's Market Organic Pumpkin Puree
- 1 1/2 cups Sugar
- 1/3 cup Vegetable oil
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Topping
- 3/4 cup Sugar
- 2 tsp Ground cinnamon

Instructions
For the Donuts:
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Whisk the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl.
-
Beat the pumpkin puree, sugar, vegetable oil, butter, vanilla and eggs and together in another large bowl until smooth.
-
Add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture and beat until just combined.
-
Fill three 6-cup nonstick doughnut pans with the batter so that each mold is almost full.
-
Smooth the tops with a moistened finger.
-
Bake the doughnuts until a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Invert the doughnuts onto a cooling rack.
For the Topping:

Stir the sugar and cinnamon together in a shallow bowl.
-
Working one at a time, brush the doughnuts all over with butter, then dip them in the cinnamon sugar to coat. Serve warm or at room temperature.
