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 buttermilk

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