Equipment

  • Silicone Donut Pan Set These silicone donut pans (set of 2), by Wilton are fantastic for baking donuts. Non-stick for easy removal!
  • Mixing Bowls These stainless steel mixing bowls are an essential cooking tool for every kitchen.
  • Rubber Scrapers These Cuisinart rubber scraper spatulas are fantastic for fillings, batters, and so much more!

Ingredients
  

Cinnamon streusel topping:

Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar or Swerve confectioners sugar substitute
  • 1-2 Tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a bowl, make the streusel topping. Combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and melted butter. Use a fork to mix together. Consistency should be crumbly and gravel-like.
  • In a mixing bowl, mix together the donut batter. Combine the spice cake mix, pumpkin, eggs and 3 Tbsp. of melted butter. Use a hand mixer, stand mixer or manually whisk with a whisk. Batter will be very thick. Transfer the batter to a resealable gallon-sized plastic bag. Cut off one of the corners to create a 3/4" opening. Set bag aside.
  • Begin piping the pumpkin donut batter into the donut cavities of the donut pan. Top the batter of each donut with 1-2 Tbsp. of streusel topping.
  • Bake the donuts at 350 degrees for 9-10 minutes. Once done baking, let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack. Repeat the process until all batter is baked into donuts.
  • Once donuts are baked and on cooling rack. Mix together the glaze. In a bowl, combine the powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. Mixture should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Drizzle the glaze over the donuts. Enjoy right away. Let the glaze dry to room temperature before storing the donuts.

Notes

Cake mix options: if you cannot find a spice cake mix, substitute a yellow cake mix, plus 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. nutmeg and 1/2 tsp. ground cloves. You can also use sugar free and gluten free cake mixes.
Storage: donuts can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature. Donuts will keep at room temperature for up to 3 days. Refrigerated, the donuts will keep for up to 7 days. Frozen, donuts will keep for up to 3 months.
