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 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).

- Drain them on a paper towel and immediately transfer to bowl of the pumpkin pie spice-sugar mix. Gently toss to coat.

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.

Tips:
- Make sure the pumpkin puree is smooth and free of lumps. You can use a food processor or blender to achieve this.
- If you don't have pumpkin pie spice on hand, you can substitute a mixture of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and allspice.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can make the doughnuts tough.
- If you don't have a donut pan, you can use a mini muffin pan instead. Just fill each cup about 2/3 full.
- Donuts are best served fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
