Ingredients

Vegetable oil – 1/4 cup
Eggs – 2
Sugar – 3/4 cup
Pumpkin puree – 3/4 cup
Pumpkin pie spice – 1 teaspoon
Salt – 1/2 teaspoon
Baking powder – 1 teaspoon
Vanilla – 1/2 teaspoon
All-purpose flour – 1 cup

For the sugar coating:

Sugar – 3 tablespoons
Cinnamon – 2 teaspoons

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease the doughnut pan lightly to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oil, eggs, sugar, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and vanilla until well combined.
Gradually add the flour and baking powder, stirring until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
Carefully fill each cavity of the doughnut pan with the batter, about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 to 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the donuts comes out clean.
Remove the donuts from the oven and let them cool slightly in the pan before transferring them to a cooling rack.
While the donuts are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture, coating them evenly.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before beginning to mix.
Don’t overmix the batter to avoid dense donuts.
Swap oil for applesauce for a healthier option without sacrificing moisture.
