PUMPKIN SPICE DONUT HOLES RECIPE BY TASTY



Pumpkin Spice Donut Holes Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: flour, sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, salt, pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter, oil, sugar, pumpkin pie spice

Provided by Mercedes Sandoval

Categories     Desserts

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups flour
¾ cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon salt
1 ¼ cups pumpkin puree
1 egg
2 tablespoons melted butter
oil, for frying
¾ cup sugar
3 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice

Steps:

  • Note: make your own pumpkin pie spice by mixing 2 tablespoons cinnamon, 1 tablespoon ginger, 1 tablespoon nutmeg, and ½ tablespoon cloves; use 2 teaspoons in the dough, and 3 tablespoons in the topping mixture.
  • In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together pumpkin puree, egg, and butter.
  • Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and stir together with rubber spatula until fully incorporated. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in a frying pan to 325˚F (160˚C).
  • While oil is heating, use your hands to shape and roll the pumpkin donut dough into balls. (Greasing your hands with oil will make this process much easier).
  • Fry the dough balls until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. (For best results, fry only 3-4 at a time).
  • Drain them on a paper towel and immediately transfer to bowl of the pumpkin pie spice-sugar mix. Gently toss to coat.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin puree: Make sure to use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugar and spices.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough doughnuts. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a donut hole pan: A donut hole pan is the best way to get evenly shaped doughnuts. If you don't have a donut hole pan, you can use a mini muffin pan, but the doughnuts will be slightly smaller.
  • Fry the doughnuts in hot oil: The oil should be between 350°F and 375°F. If the oil is too hot, the doughnuts will brown too quickly and be undercooked on the inside. If the oil is too cold, the doughnuts will absorb too much oil and be greasy.
  • Drain the doughnuts on paper towels: After frying, drain the doughnuts on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
  • Coat the doughnuts in cinnamon sugar: While the doughnuts are still warm, coat them in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar. This will give them a delicious and classic flavor.

Conclusion:

Baked pumpkin doughnut holes are a delicious and easy fall treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. With their moist texture and pumpkin spice flavor, these doughnuts are sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these baked pumpkin doughnut holes a try!
