Make the morning start right with Baked Pumpkin Doughnuts!
Most of you all know I have a deep found love for pumpkin. It goes without saying that I would be making baked pumpkin doughnuts this year.
They were delicious too; however, there is one thing I would change. I would likely do a cream cheese frosting next time instead of the powdered sugar glaze. Something about pumpkin doughnuts and cream cheese frosting just goes together.
For these doughnuts, I simply adapted the recipe for Baked Vanilla Doughnuts. It was simple and easy to make using the doughnut pan.
Enjoy a taste of fall with these baked doughnuts. This recipe made about 12 doughnuts; however, I doubled the recipe to make more as they go fast around our house!
How do you make these Baked Pumpkin Doughnuts into Gluten-Free Baked Pumpkin Doughnuts?
A simple flour switch, use whichever gluten-free all purpose flour that you prefer. I use Better Batter Gluten-Free All Purpose Flour and it’s an even switch!
