Pumpkin spice has been a fall trend for many years now. Once the temperature turns crisp and the leaves bloom fiery leaves, coffee shops and bakeries all start to boast pumpkin spice flavors in their sweet treats. With the yummy recipes below, you can take all that pumpkin spice goodness and bring it home!
Baked Pumpkin Donuts
Who doesn’t just love a nice warm donut? Get out your donut maker and try this recipe for an easy breakfast treat (or anytime, really – who says donuts can only be enjoyed in the morning?).
** If you don’t have a donut maker, you can use a donut pan or even a muffin tin!
Here’s what you’ll need:
Dry Ingredients:
- ¼ tsp of salt
- 3 tsp of pumpkin pie spice
- 2 tsp of baking powder
- ½ tsp of baking soda
- ⅔ cup of brown sugar
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
Wet Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup of pumpkin purée
- ¼ cup of maple syrup
- ⅓ cup of melted coconut oil
- 2 tsp of vanilla extract
You’ll combine the dry ingredients and wet ingredients in their own separate bowls (keep in mind, the dry ingredient bowl needs to be slightly bigger as you’ll be adding the wet ingredients). Once each bowl is mixed, you’ll want to slowly add the wet ingredients, stirring the mixture in thoroughly and making sure not to miss any flour that may cake along the edges/bottom!
Once you fill your pan/maker/mold with the mix, you’ll want to bake them for 18 minutes. If you’re using an oven, 350F is a good temperature.
** Want to make your donuts even tastier? Brush some melted coconut oil over the still-warm donuts, then cover them with a combination of sugar, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice.
Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Spice Bread
Here’s another easy recipe that leads to a yummy treat. Pumpkin bread is great for breakfast, a sweet snack, or a side to a nice warm cup of coffee – and with or without the chocolate, it’s delicious! Get out your favorite loaf pan and try this recipe out for yourself.
Here’s what you’ll need:
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 tsp of cinnamon
- 2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice
- 2 tsp of baking powder
- 1 tsp of baking soda
- 1 ½ cups of granulated sugar
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
Wet Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- 15 oz of pumpkin purée
- 1 cup of olive oil (or vegetable oil)
Follow the previous recipe’s instructions for combining ingredients!
** This recipe fills 2 8 ½ x 4 ½ bread pans. Once you fill your pans with the mix, you’ll want to bake your bread at 350F for approximately 50 minutes.
