Baked Pumpkin Doughnuts
Posted on | November 16, 2012 | 7 Comments
These delicious mini doughnuts will melt in your mouth. They are covered in cinnamon sugar and honestly, pumpkin and cinnamon are a match made in heaven. They make for a perfect autumn taste. And given these doughnuts are baked they’re healthier than their deep fried counterparts. Love it!
I found this recipe on Hovkonditorn, a blog written by a Finn living in Singapore. Jump over to her blog for some tasty goodness.
Baked Pumpkin Doughnuts
Ingredients
makes about 30 Mini Doughnuts
- 50 g butter, soft
- 1/4 cup / 45 g brown sugar
- 1 small egg
- 100 g / 3/4 cup + 1 tbsp flour (I used half whole spelt flour and half all-purpose flour)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- pinch nutmeg
- pinch ginger
- pinch salt
- 2 tbsp Greek yoghurt
- 100 ml / 1/3 cup + 1 heaping tbsp pumpkin puree (I used homemade pumpkin puree which probably has a higher water content than the canned puree.)
- cinnamon sugar (combine a little ground cinnamon with sugar)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F /175°C.
With an electric mixer beat the butter and the sugar until the mix becomes light and fluffy. Mix in the egg. Sieve the flour over the mixture. Add the remaining ingredients and combine them.
Fill the batter into the mini doughnut pan and bake them for about 10 minutes. Take them out of the oven. Remove the doughnuts from the pan and roll them in the cinnamon sugar while they’re still warm.
Guten Appetit!

Holy cow. You have up a ton of awesome recipes. I don’t understand why I never see them. Maybe because I have like 3,000 unread posts in my Google Reader. I don’t know. But these look awesome! And that’s a very nice doughnut pan.
