  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Maple Glaze:

  • 3/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a donut pan with nonstick spray.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and baking soda.
  3. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in pumpkin and vanilla. Gradually add in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  4. Bake the Donuts: Scoop the batter into the donut pan and bake for 10-12 minutes until slightly browned.
  5. Make the Maple Glaze: Reduce maple syrup in a saucepan, then whisk in butter, vanilla, salt, and confectioners’ sugar until smooth.
  6. Glaze the Donuts: Dip the cooled donuts into the glaze and allow it to set.
  7. Serve: Enjoy the donuts warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For best results, use room temperature eggs and butter.
  • Ensure the donuts are completely cooled before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting too quickly.
