Ingredients
Scale
Donut Batter
- 1 cup pumpkin purée
- 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure the donuts bake evenly and develop a golden crust.
- Mix Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the pumpkin purée and the yellow cake mix thoroughly until you achieve a smooth, uniform batter free of lumps.
- Prepare Baking Pan: Lightly grease a donut pan to prevent sticking, ensuring easy removal of your baked donuts.
- Fill the Pan: Spoon the batter evenly into the donut cavities, filling each about three-quarters full to allow room for rising.
- Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a donut comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the donuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve as is or with your favorite glaze or powdered sugar topping.
Notes
- You can add a teaspoon of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice to the batter for extra warmth and flavor.
- Try drizzling a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk over the cooled donuts for added sweetness.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
