Tips For Pumpkin Donuts
Pumpkin puree: Be sure to use puree NOT pumpkin pie filling. They are different. Puree is 100% pure pumpkin with no added flavors while pumpkin pie filling includes all of the traditional ingredients used in pumpkin pie. I wasn't really going for a pumpkin pie taste here, so I used puree instead.
Donut pan: You will need a donut pan to make these perfect donuts. I have a large one that has 20 donut holes and they all came out perfect especially since I buttered the pan.
Butter: Speaking of butter, if you don't have a nonstick pan, wipe down every donut hole with butter or with non stick oil.
Cinnamon sugar coating: The donuts are pretty good on their own but the coating makes them sweeter and more addictive. If you are trying to limit your sugar intake, I suggest just coating the top half or skipping out on this altogether.
Try something different: Ditch the cinnamon sugar coating and just add some chocolate chips to the batter.
Let them cool: Allow the donuts to cool before adding any toppings.
