Vegan Pumpkin Donuts- soft, delicious and baked (not fried)!
Donuts were never a favorite of mine because I’m not a fan of fried food. After catching a whiff of the homemade apple cider donuts at the apple orchards and pumpkin patches this year, I was suddenly very tempted to indulge. I’m sure my pregnancy hormones had something to do with this! I got to work on making Baked Vegan Apple Cider Donuts and the results were delicious! Since it’s the time of year for all things pumpkin, I figured I’d whip up a batch of Vegan Pumpkin Donuts.
These Vegan Pumpkin Donuts turned out sooo good! They’re not too sweet and the combination of pumpkin and spices makes for a wonderful autumn flavor. They only require 10 minutes of prep time. Don’t be intimidated if you’ve never baked homemade donuts before- these are simple!
If you’re looking for a donut pan, I bought this donut pan recently and I’m really pleased with it! The silicone makes the donuts so easy to remove and it’s also a breeze to clean.
