How to make pumpkin donuts:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 12 cavity donut pan very well, set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together your almond flour, sweetener, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin spice.
3. In a medium mixing bowl mix together your eggs, butter, pumpkin, and vanilla until well combined and whisk into your dry mixture until no clumps remain.
4. Fill each donut cavity about 3/4 full with your donut batter and bake in your preheated oven for 16-18 minutes. Allow your donuts to cool completely before taking out of donut pan.
5. Once your donuts are cool, make your glaze! If you do not have powdered stevia or monk fruit, you can powder your granulated sweetener in a coffee bean grinder. Place your powdered sweetener in a bowl with your pumpkin spice and whisk together. Slowly add water by the tbs while mixing until you get a dippable texutre.
6. Dip the top of your cooled donuts in your glaze and enjoy!

Frequently asked questions

What can I use instead of a donut pan?

If you do not have a donut pan, you can use a muffin tin with a rolled up ball of tin foil in the middle so you can still get that donut hole in the middle!

Do baked donuts taste the same as fried donuts?

The texture is more compact or 'cakey' and the color is also much pale. However, I personally enjoy a baked donut more than a fried one - plus it save calories.

How do I store homemade baked donuts?

Store these donuts in an airtight container on your counter for up to 5 days, or in an airtight container in your fridge for up to 8 days.

Can I freeze baked donuts?

Absolutely! This recipe freezes very well. Freeze in an airtight container and they should keep for 4-6 months.
