Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large egg
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups pumpkin purée canned pumpkin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 3/4 cups + 2 tablespoons All Purpose Flour OR Gluten Free Flour Mix
  • Cinnamon Sugar optional to Top

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease two standard doughnut pans.
  • Beat together the oil, eggs, sugar, pumpkin, spices, salt, and baking powder until smooth.
  • Add the flour, stirring just until smooth.
  • Fill the wells of the doughnut pans about 3/4 full.
  • Bake the doughnuts for 15 to 18 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of one comes out clean.
  • Remove the doughnuts from the oven, and after about 5 minutes, loosen their edges, and transfer them to a rack to cool.
  • While the doughnuts are still warm (but no longer fragile), top them with cinnamon sugar gently patting it down so it sticks.
  • Cool completely, and store (not wrapped tight) at room temperature for several days.Gluten Free
  • Use a gluten free flour mix. I used Gluten Free Bisquick and they turned out fabulous.
