Ingredients

  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 3/4 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 3 tablespoons melted salted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • Cinnamon sugar
  • Maple Syrup Glaze, recipe follows

Directions

Preheat oil in a large Dutch oven to 375 degrees F.

Whisk dry ingredients together in a large bowl.

Whisk eggs, yolk, buttermilk, pumpkin puree, melted butter and almond extract together in another large bowl until smooth. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and thoroughly mix together using a wooden spoon. The dough will be very sticky.

Dust your countertop and hands with flour. Using your hands pat out dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Dip a 3-inch round cutter in flour and cut out donuts. Cut out center of donuts with 3/4-inch cutter. Gather scraps and re-roll. Continue cutting out donuts.

Fry donuts, in hot oil, until golden brown and crisp, approximately 1 minute per side. Drain on wire rack over sheet tray to cool.

Once cool, dust with cinnamon sugar, if desired, or dip tops of the donuts into the Maple Syrup Glaze. Also, a butter knife can be used to spread on the glaze.

Maple Syrup Glaze:

  • 3 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon maple extract
  • 1/2 cup milk

In a small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, maple extract and milk; stir well. Add additional milk, if needed, to reach desired consistency. Drizzle over donuts.

    The best donuts I've ever made. Super simple and very tasty. They start out sticky, as the directions say, but once you add the flour while cutting them they lose that. And the glaze is yummy yummy. If it seems to soak in too much, just add more sugar to thicken, and be sure the donuts are completely cool before applying. Thanks so much for the recipe!!

    Very crumbly dough when I had to mix it with a wooden spoon from the wet and dry. Not sure what went wrong, but oh well.

    Delicious! Comes out perfect every time! Love to coat donut holes in cinnamon-sugar and glaze donuts with maple glaze.
