Ingredients
  

  • DONUTS
  • 2 cups flour - Make sure to only use all-purpose. I haven't tested it with any other flour
  • ½ cup sugar + 2 Tbsp
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ baking soda
  • 2 eggs - room temperature
  • 1 cup sour cream - full-fat sour cream really gives a more moist texture to these donuts. You can also use unsweetened vanilla yogurt or a combination of both.
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree - make sure it's not pumpkin pie filling!
  • 1 stick of butter melted and cooled. Make sure to let it fully cool
  • ¼ cup brown sugar - I use light brown sugar
  • ¼ tsp Nutmeg - gives it that nutty warm flavor
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp Cloves - these are optional but they really kick the flavor up a notch!
  • ¼ tsp Ginger
  • Salt

Instructions
 

  • GLAZE
  • Powdered Sugar
  • Milk
  • Vanilla
  • Crushed Oreo Cookies - These will be broken up to make the topping
  • Instructions
  • Preheat oven 350
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and spices- mix in a medium bowl and set aside
  • Whisk eggs, pumpkin, sour cream, melted butter, and brown sugar -in a large bowl. Make sure to really mix this well so everything is completely combined
  • Add flour to the wet mixture and mix until just combined. Overmixing will make the donuts tougher and not as fluffy
  • Scoop the batter into a pastry bag or larger Ziploc bag, and snip off the tip with scissors.
  • Pipe the batter into individual greased donut pans - I use the silicone ones, they allow the donut to pop out and not get stuck.
  • Bake 15-20 minutes and make sure to keep an eye on these so they don't get too dark and overcook.
  • Cool for 15 minutes on a wire rack
  • During this time, make the glaze
  • Mix the powdered sugar with the vanilla and milk until it forms a thick glaze
  • Dip the top of each donut into the glaze
  • Sprinkle the Oreo crumbs on top of each donut and allow to dry. I like to mix up bigger chunks with fine crumbles.
