Paleo and Gluten Free Pumpkin Donuts
15 mins prepServes 7
My most popular recipe from fall last year and this year so far! These Paleo and Gluten Free Pumpkin Donuts are so simple to make and so tasty! The icing on top is also so good. This recipe makes 6-7 donuts.
Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a donut pan. In a bowl, whisk 2 eggs. Add 1 cup almond flour, 1/4 cup organic pumpkin, 3 tbsp maple syrup, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice. Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly. Pour the batter into the greased donut pan. Bake for 20-22 minutes. Let the donuts cool before popping them out of the pan.
While the donuts are baking, prepare the icing. In a separate bowl, mix together 1/2 tbsp coconut butter and 1/2 tbsp maple syrup. Microwave for 30 seconds and stir until combined. Let it sit for a minute. If needed, add a little milk of choice to thin out the icing to your desired consistency. Once the donuts have cooled a little, dip them in the icing. You can eat them right away or store them in the fridge to let the icing harden.
