Baked pumpkin donuts topped with a simple maple glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (for glaze)
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a donut pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk the granulated sugar and egg until pale. Mix in the pumpkin puree, milk, and melted butter until just combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just incorporated. Do not overmix.
- Spoon or pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each mold about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the glaze, whisk together the maple syrup and powdered sugar until smooth.
- Dip the top of each cooled donut into the glaze. Let the glaze set before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute melted coconut oil for the melted butter.
- For a stronger maple flavor, use pure maple extract in the donut batter.
