Pumpkin Coffee Cake Donuts
Description
The Pumpkin Coffee Cake Donuts begin by blending a spice cake mix with pumpkin puree, eggs, and melted butter to form a moist, flavorful batter. A separate streusel topping is prepared by mixing brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and melted butter until crumbly. This streusel is sprinkled over the batter in the donut pan before baking at 350°F for about 10 minutes.
After baking and slight cooling, the donuts are removed from the pan and topped with a glaze made from powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract that adds a sweet finishing touch. The donuts combine the moist texture of pumpkin cake with a crunchy streusel topping and a smooth glaze, delivering varied textures and flavors in each bite.
These donuts can be enjoyed fresh for breakfast, a dessert, or a festive treat during pumpkin season. The use of spice cake mix and pumpkin puree simplifies the preparation while maintaining a homestyle taste. The glaze adds a bright note that complements the warm spices throughout the donuts.
Ingredients
- 1 box spice cake mix
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 egg
- 3 tablespoon butter melted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup flour *all purpose
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoon butter melted
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoon milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Grease a donut pan and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a bowl, combine the spice cake mix, pumpkin puree, eggs, and butter.
- In a separate bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Drizzle the 3-tablespoon melted butter over the brown sugar mixture and combine. This will be used as your streusel and should be crumbly.
- Fill the doughnut pan with the pumpkin batter about 2/3 full.
- Sprinkle the streusel mixture on top of the pumpkin batter.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes.

Notes
- Grease the donut pan well to ensure easy removal of the donuts after baking.
- Allow donuts to cool slightly before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting off.
- The streusel topping should be crumbly; adjust butter amount if mixture is too wet.
