Soft pumpkin donuts topped with a maple glaze are exactly how I want to celebrate a fall morning. Bake a batch of Maple Glazed Pumpkin Donuts today!
Ingredients
FOR THE DONUTS:
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp ground cloves
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
FOR THE GLAZE:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1-2 Tbsp milk
- 1 tsp maple extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Spray donut pan (I use this one) with baking spray. Set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine butter and sugar until creamy. Add in egg and vanilla, beat until combined.
- Blend in pumpkin puree. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices. Beat until well combined. Batter will be very thick. Spoon into a large plastic resealable bag. Snip off the corner and pipe into donut pans, filling them about ½ full.
- Bake in 375 degree oven for about 13-15 minutes.
- Remove from oven and cool in pan for about 5 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.
- Once cooled, whisk together the glaze ingredients until smooth. Dunk cooled donuts into glaze and place back on wire rack. Allow to set about 5 minutes and enjoy!
