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.

Time 45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

nonstick cooking spray
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 ½ cups pumpkin puree
3 large eggs
½ cup vegetable oil
1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray two 6-hole doughnut pans with cooking spray.
  • Combine sugar, pumpkin puree, eggs, oil, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and baking powder for the doughnuts in the bowl of a stand mixer; mix until smooth. Gently stir in 1 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour until just combined. Divide batter among the 2 doughnut pans, filling each well about 3/4 of the way full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • Remove doughnuts from oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes. Gently transfer doughnuts to a wire rack (you can use a butter knife or small rubber spatula to help release them from the pan if needed).
  • Combine sugar and pumpkin pie spice for the dusting on a large pie plate or in a resealable plastic bag. Gently coat doughnuts with the sugar mixture while still warm. Do wait until they have firmed up a little and aren't too fragile or they will crack and break. Best served warm.

PUMPKIN SPICE DOUGHNUT HOLES

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 24 doughnuts

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 large egg
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup plus 1/3 cup sugar
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt and 2 teaspoons of the pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl.
  • Whisk the egg, melted butter, milk and 1/2 cup of the sugar in a medium bowl.
  • Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture.
  • Working in batches, fry small scoops of the dough in 2 inches of 350 degrees F vegetable oil, turning, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a rack to drain, then roll in a mixture of the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and the remaining 1 teaspoon pie spice while warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin purée for the best flavor. You can make your own by roasting a pumpkin and then puréeing it, or you can buy canned pumpkin purée.
  • Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour will make the donut holes dry and tough.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the donut holes tough.
  • Fry the donut holes in hot oil. The oil should be between 350°F and 375°F. If the oil is too hot, the donut holes will brown too quickly and be raw in the middle. If the oil is too cool, the donut holes will absorb too much oil and be greasy.
  • Drain the donut holes on paper towels before serving. This will help to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the donut holes warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as maple syrup, chocolate sauce, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

These pumpkin spice donut holes are a delicious and easy fall treat. They're perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. They're also great for parties and potlucks. So next time you're looking for a sweet and festive treat, give these pumpkin spice donut holes a try!
