- 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice (2.5g)
- 1/8 tsp Extra Fine Pink Himalayan Salt (pinch – add a large pinch if using unsalted butter)
Wet
- 1 Large Pasture Raised Egg (50g)
- 118 ml (4 fl oz) Whole Milk (1/2 C)
- 62g (2.2 oz) Pure Pumpkin Puree (1/4 C)
- 1 T Salted Butter, melted (14g)
- 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract (5 ml)

- 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon (2.5g)
- 2 T Salted Butter, melted (28g or 1 oz)
Instructions
Equipment: Digital scale (preferred), Doughnut pans, Measuring cups and spoons, Mixing bowls, Whisk, Spoon, Cooling rack
Before You Dive In – Prep: please read!
- Make pumpkin puree, if using homemade (here’s a great tutorial)
- Move oven rack to center
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 C)
- Spray or grease doughnut wells, try our non-stick baking Goop!
Step 1: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
Step 2: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients.
Step 3: Add the wet mix to the dry mix and whisk until blended.
Step 4: Evenly spoon batter into 12 regular sized, greased doughnut wells (9 if you are using large well doughnut pans.) Batter should fill about 3/4 of each well.
Step 5: Bake in the center of a preheated 350 F/177 C oven for about 15 minutes. A toothpick inserted in the center will come out clean.
Step 6: Remove from the oven and allow doughnuts to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Step 7: Optional Topping: In a bowl big enough to dip the doughnuts in, blend together the cinnamon and sugar. In a separate small bowl, melt the butter. Use a pastry brush to coat a doughnut with butter. Gently roll the doughnut in cinnamon and sugar, (to cut down on sugar, we usually dip just one side of the doughnut in sugar.)
Enjoy warm!
Notes
