I absolutely love pumpkin spice, and baked donuts are one of my favourite things to make. They’re also really easy to make! So Pumpkin Spice Baked Donuts are the perfect combination for me. They are packed with Autumn spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, they are deliciously moist and drizzled with a sweet cinnamon icing. Grab yourself some donut pans to make this recipe (check the Amazon link towards the end of this post) and you’ll be surprised at how easy they are to put together!
To make the donuts I mixed together eggs, pumpkin puree, caster sugar, vegetable oil and milk.
In another bowl I stirred plain flour, cinnamon, mixed spice, nutmeg and ginger together.
I added the dry ingredients to the wet ones and whisked until smooth.
Then I poured the batter into my greased donut pans and baked for 12 minutes.
When they were baked I put them on a cooling rack to cool completely.
I made cinnamon icing for the donuts by adding water to icing sugar and cinnamon. Then I drizzled it over the Pumpkin Spice Baked Donuts.
Wow these Pumpkin Spice Baked Donuts were tasty! They were light, moist and full of spices.
My friends and colleagues loved these donuts, and many yummy noises were made! I do find you just can’t eat one!

Pumpkin Spice Baked Donuts
Spiced autumn treats with cinnamon icing
Ingredients
For the donuts
- Butter or baking spread for greasing
- 2 Eggs large
- 175 g Pumpkin puree
- 175 g Caster sugar
- 150 ml Milk Cow's or plant milk will both work
- 30 ml Vegetable Oil
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp Mixed spice
- 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp Ground ginger
- 225 g Plain flour
For the icing
- 100 g Icing sugar
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
Instructions
-
Pre-heat your oven to 160C Fan/180C/350F/Gas Mark 4 and grease two donut tins with the butter
-
Mix together the caster sugar, milk, vegetable oil, pumpkin puree and eggs in a bowl with a whisk
-
In another bowl stir the plain flour, cinnamon, mixed spice, ginger and nutmeg together
-
Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk together well
-
Divide the batter between the trays. You can put the batter into a piping bag to make it a bit neater to dispense into the trays, but you can do it with a spoon too
-
Bake them for 12 minutes, then remove them from the tin (I use a spoon to gently prise them out) and leave to cool on a cooling rack
-
Stir the icing sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl and add enough water to make a drizzling icing
-
Set the donuts onto a rack with a baking tray underneath to catch any drips
-
Either put the icing in a piping bag and drizzle it over the donuts or use a spoon to drizzle it
-
Store leftovers in an airtight container and eat within 3 days
Recipe Notes
Mixed spice is a British spice blend containing Cinnamon, Coriander Seed, Nutmeg, Clove, Pimento, Ginger. If you can't get hold of it, use a Pumpkin Spice mix instead

I never knew you could bake donuts! Would definitely like to try these if I ever got a donut pan. Have to say I really admire your drizzling skills – I can never get it right and they always end up all blobby!
Yes it's amazing and so easy! My tip for drizzling is use a fork, it drizzles quite nicely I find.
These look delish! I love the wilton donut pan!
Thanks Kerry! It's amazing, I love it too!
