Description

A recipe for baked donuts flavored with pumpkin and warm spices, made without animal products.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened plant milk
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the glaze: 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons plant milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a donut pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, pumpkin puree, plant milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Spoon or pipe the batter evenly into the prepared donut pan cavities, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the donuts cool, prepare the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar, plant milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  9. Dip the top of each cooled donut into the glaze. Let the glaze set before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond flour for all-purpose flour for a gluten-free option, but you may need to adjust liquid slightly.
  • For extra flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice blend instead of individual spices.
  • Store leftover donuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
