Make these Baked Pumpkin Donuts for a weekend breakfast treat or a fun dessert. Enjoy them plain or with an easy cinnamon glaze.
Hi friends!
I originally shared this donut recipe way back in 2010 and they’re still a household favorite so I figured they were worth sharing again!. They’re quick, easy and they allow me to use my mini donut pan, which is totally adorable. Hubby is a huge fan of these donuts and requests them at least every Fall. But don’t be fooled, they’d be great any time of year. I haven’t tried making these in a full-size donut pan but I’d imagine it would work just fine!
Ready to give them a try? Here’s the recipe:

Simply delicious and that glaze!! We love our donuts and with our monthly family donut dates this year we haven’t been making them often. Before it was weekly making healthy baked mini donuts usually. Can’t wait to try these.
