Maple Frosting on baked Pumpkin Doughnuts

Start your day right with these rich and tender Baked Pumpkin Doughnuts! These savory fall-flavored treats are baked, not fried, which makes them less greasy and lighter enough to devour at least two for breakfast! With a layer of maple frosting and crushed pecans, you will be craving them for dessert too.

We love baked doughnuts!

They are a lot less work than the conventional fried ones. Plus, they are lighter on the stomach because they are not dripping in oil. And with the fall season upon us, we decided to warm the oven up and make these savory ring-shaped goodies and imbue them with the season’s finest- PUMPKINS!!!

They are made with pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin puree, which gives them a festive flavor and tender, cake-like texture! They are memorable as they are, but the maple frosting and pecan topping make them even more special. Can you imagine munching on these with a steaming cup of Coconut Pumpkin Spice Latte on a crisp autumn morning? Bliss!!! These better-than-bakery donuts can also be enjoyed as an afternoon snack or dessert.
