These Baked Pumpkin Donuts are soft and moist and make the perfect breakfast or dessert. Topped with cinnamon-sugar they are great with a cup of coffee or a tall glass of milk.
Baked Pumpkin Donuts
My family loves donuts and I love baking them instead of frying them. Any kind of baked donuts in donut pan are great. The Baked Oreo Donuts are popular around our house year-round.
As soon as the weather turns cooler I am ready for anything made with Pumpkin. These Pumpkin donuts are one of the first recipes I make and they don't last long.

It turned out good! But I couldn't get the sugar to stick to the donuts

Made 12 donuts and 4 muffins. Tasted great. Timing says 15 to 18 minutes but when reading text it says 24 minutes. Done when toothpick comes out clean is correct.Was "just" done at 15 but could have done with browning a couple more minutes. Will definately make again. Sugaring amount is too much in amount, even when resugaring prior to serving. Half as much would work fine.

I could get more than 12 donuts out of this recipe. Don’t know what size donuts this is supposed to be. So it depends on what kind of pan you have.
