    INGREDIENTS

    1 15oz (1¾ cup) can
    of pumpkin
    ½ cup vegetable oil
    3 large eggs
    1½ cups granulated
    sugar
    ¾ teaspoon ground
    cinnamon
    ½ teaspoon ground
    nutmeg
    ½ teaspoon ground
    ginger
    ¼ teaspoon ground
    allspice
    1½ teaspoons salt
    1½ teaspoons baking
    powder
    1¾ cups + 2
    Tablespoons all
    purpose flour

    INSTRUCTIONS

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare your
    donut pan with cooking spray.
    2. In a medium bowl, mix whisk together the
    canned pumpkin, vegetable oil, eggs and
    granulated sugar.
    3. In another bowl, mix together the spices,
    the salt, the baking powder and the flour.
    4. Mix together the wet ingredients with the
    dry ingredients, mixing well. (I use my stand
    mixer).
    5. Using a mini ice cream scoop (my favorite
    method) or a spoon, fill each donut well
    with about a quarter cup of batter or so.
    You want them about ¾ full.
    6. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 15
    minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the
    donut comes out clean.
    7. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5
    minutes in the pan.
    8. Remove the donuts and place on a cooling
    rack to continue cooling.
    9. While still warm, dip them into a pumpkin
    pie sugar mixture. Use 1 cup of sugar and 2
    Tablespoons of pumpkin pie spice (I use
    homemade, using the measurements in the
    recipe above for cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger
    and allspice.)
    10. Put everything into a plastic ziplock bag and
    shake the donuts individually until coated.
    11. If the sugar/spice mixture doesn’t stick
    well, dip the donut in melted butter first.
