Pumpkin Spice Donuts

Pumpkin donuts make a great fall breakfast treat, and these are not only gluten-free, but easy to make.

A few ingredients you probably already have in your pantry make these pumpkin spice donuts super easy.

Follow the instructions and mix the ingredients together. This is the part I love because the pumpkin spices really come alive.

Pour the batter into a donut pan (I like this donut pan), filling about 2/3 the way to the top.

After donuts have cooked through, place on wire rack to cool slightly. When they’re cool enough to pick up, dip each in melted butter and then coat with cinnamon sugar mixture.

Dip both sides of the donuts and place on rack to cool.

I love how high these donuts get with the gluten-free dough. You won’t know the difference between these and regular pumpkin spice donuts!
