1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 large egg
¼ cup melted coconut oil
½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
2 tbsp granulated sugar (for coating)
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease your donut pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, egg, melted coconut oil, and milk until smooth.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and any optional spices. Whisk thoroughly.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
Using a piping bag or a spoon, fill each donut mold about ¾ full.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
Allow donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon, then gently coat the warm donuts.
