Instructions
Creating Baked Pumpkin Donuts is a fun and easy process that can be tackled in just a few steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut pan with cooking spray.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until well blended.
4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Fill the Donut Pan: Using a piping bag or a spoon, fill each cavity of the donut pan about two-thirds full.
6. Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
7. Cool Down: Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
8. Top the Donuts: After the donuts have cooled completely, dust them with powdered sugar or dip them in icing if desired.
Following these simple steps will reward you with a batch of delicious Baked Pumpkin Donuts that will satisfy any craving.
