Description
Easy and delicious, these baked pumpkin donuts with bourbon glaze are the perfect fall recipe for dessert and brunch!
Ingredients
Donut Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 (15 oz) can of pumpkin (not pumpkin filling)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
3 eggs
Glaze Ingredients:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons Brown Sugar Bourbon
Instructions
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, and grease two donut pans with nonstick spray (I use a coconut oil spray).
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, flour through salt. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, mix together all the wet ingredients, pumpkin through eggs until well combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Transfer the batter to a large ziplock bag, and cut about an inch-wide hole in one corner. Pipe the batter into each well of the donut pan, filling each well to about 2/3 full. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs. Allow to cool before dipping in glaze.
For the glaze: whisk together the powdered sugar and Brown Sugar Bourbon until smooth. Dip each donut into the glaze, and allow to harden before serving.
Notes
Want to make an alcohol-free glaze? Simply replace the bourbon with 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
