Ingredients

• For the donuts:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1-1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. baking soda
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• For the glaze:
• 1-1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup Nutella
• 3-4 tbsp. milk
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

For the donuts:
Preheat oven to 325°F. Lightly spray a donut pan with cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream the butter. Add the pumpkin, eggs and milk. Mix well. Add the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, salt and baking soda; mix well. Divide the batter between the donut wells, filling about two-thirds full.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the donuts spring back when touched.
For the glaze: Combine all glaze ingredients with a wire whisk until smooth. You may need to add a bit more milk it the glaze is too thick.
To finish the donuts, carefully dip the tops of the donuts into the Nutella glaze and place upright on a cooling rack until the glaze is set.
