These baked pumpkin donuts are soft, fluffy, and coated in warm cinnamon sugar, making them the perfect seasonal treat for fall mornings or cozy gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup (240ml) pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup (60g) butter
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease your donut pan with non-stick spray or butter.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Add pumpkin puree, brown sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix—stop as soon as the batter comes together.
  5. Spoon the batter evenly into the donut pan, filling each cavity about three-quarters full.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the donuts spring back when lightly pressed. Let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
  7. While the donuts are cooling, melt butter in a small bowl. In another bowl, mix granulated sugar with cinnamon.
  8. Brush the melted butter onto each donut and roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
  9. Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
