Baking Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin well.
  • In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, all spice, and cloves.
  • Add in the egg, and mix until combined.
  • Add in buttermilk, vanilla extract and melted butter. Mix until just combined.
  • Lastly, add in the pumpkin puree and mix until just combined.
  • Drop about 1 tablespoon of batter into each mini muffin cup.
  • Bake for 9-10 minutes, or until the pumpkin donut holes ‘spring’ back when touched.
  • Once the donuts have cooled, roll each donut hole in the melted butter, and then immediately roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Alternatively, you could substitute pumpkin pie spice for these spices. If substituting, I suggest using ½ teaspoon cinnamon + 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice.
