Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut pan well. I like to use cooking spray, but you can also grease it with butter or oil.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. Make sure everything is well combined to avoid any clumps of baking powder in your donuts.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, pumpkin puree, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter. A few lumps are okay! Overmixing can lead to tough donuts.
  • Transfer the batter to a piping bag or a large zip-top bag. Cut off the tip of the bag and pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full. After testing this several times, I learned that filling them too full can cause the donuts to puff up too much and lose their shape.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The donuts should be lightly golden brown.
  • Let the donuts cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them firm up and prevents them from breaking.
