These doughnuts are the perfect way to start my day. They're sweet, but not too sweet, and the spices give them a really nice flavor. I love that they're also baked, so I can feel good about eating them for breakfast.

I love that these doughnuts are baked instead of fried. They're still light and fluffy, but they're not as greasy. I also appreciate that the recipe doesn't require any special equipment. I was able to make them with just a few basic kitchen tools.

These doughnuts are a bit more dense than traditional doughnuts, but I really like the texture. They're very filling and satisfying. The spices give them a really nice flavor and the glaze is the perfect finishing touch.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but I really enjoyed these doughnuts. The spices really balance out the sweetness of the potatoes. I'll definitely be making them again.

These doughnuts are a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I always have a few leftover after Thanksgiving and Christmas, and this is the perfect way to use them up. The doughnuts are delicious and they freeze really well, so I can enjoy them
