By awright0511

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups flour blend
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice (equal parts cinnamon, ground ginger, and nutmeg)
• 2 large eggs
• 3 tbsp canola oil or walnut oil
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 6 tbsp orange puree
• 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 and spray and mini bundt (or donut) pan with oil. For cupcakes, line a muffin tin with paper liners.

In a large bowl, whisk together the Flour blend, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice. In another large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, sugar, orange puree, pumpkin puree, and vanilla until well combined. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until the flour is just moistened. Don't over mix. Pour into donut molds or fill muffin cups almost to the top. Spray tops of donuts or muffins with oil before baking.

For donuts: Bake 14-16 minutes or until tops spring back when pressed lightly. Loosen the edges with a knife and turn the donuts out over a plate. Allow to cool then decorate as desired.

For muffins: Bake 22-24 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Turn the muffins out to cool. Dust tops with powdered sugar or decorate as desired.
