Instructions
EQUIPMENT:
PUMPKIN SPICE DONUTS DONUTS
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray 2 donut pans with non-stick cooking spray.
-
In the bowl of a stand mixer beat together the pumpkin puree, oil, applesauce, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla until fully combined.
-
Add in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and begin to mix on low.
-
With the mixer on low, slowly add in the milk and mix until just combined. A few lumps in the batter is fine.
-
Scoop the batter into a large pastry bag and pipe into donut pans making sure to only fill each donut cavity 1/2 full. If you do not have a pastry bag carefully spoon the batter into each donut cavity.
-
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly brown and bounce back to the touch. Invert each pan onto a cooling rack and allow it to fully cool before glazing.
SALTED MAPLE GLAZE
-
In a medium pot, heat the butter and maple syrup over medium heat until fully melted and combined. Remove from the heat.
-
Add in the icing sugar, salt, and maple emulsion and, with a whisk, mix until smooth.
-
Allow the glaze to cool for a few minutes before dipping the top of each donut into the glaze.
-
Dip the top of each donut into the glaze and invert on a cooling rack to set. If the glaze gets too firm simply warm it back up and continue to dip donuts in until done. Enjoy!
