Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut pan or use a silicone donut mold for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
  3. In another bowl, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake the donuts for 10 to 12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the donuts are cooling, mix the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice in a small bowl until smooth.
  9. Once the donuts are cool, dip the tops into the glaze and let the excess drip off.
  10. Place them back on the wire rack to let the glaze set.

Notes

  • For a thicker glaze, add more powdered sugar.
  • For a thinner glaze, add more milk.
  • These donuts pair well with coffee or tea.
