Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325F
  2. In a large bowl, mix together all the wet ingredients until blended.
  3. One by one, add in the dry ingredients and begin to mix.
  4. Mix until combined but no more than that. Don’t leave any flour at the bottom.
  5. Portion manually (with a spoon) into a silicone donut mild. You’ll need to scoop the batter as it’s pretty thick.
  6. Shape and smooth them out with a silicone spatula.
  7. Bake for 30 minutes and then turn the oven off and let them sit for another 10.
  8. Remove them from the oven and let them cool fully before removing them from their molds.
  9. Enjoy them as is or top them with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • The pumpkin donut batter is pretty thick once it sits for a minute so you’ll need to manually shape the donuts. Take the time to smooth out the tops. Trust me, they bake batter this way.
  • If you can, lift the filled donut molds up and place them firmly back down on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
  • Don’t try to remove the baked pumpkin donuts from the molds before they’re completely cooled. They’ll just fall apart.
  • Cooking them at a lower temperature for longer and then letting them sit in the oven makes it so that the donuts don't burn on the bottom of the mold. 
  • The gluten-free donuts firm up a bit in the fridge and get a chewier texture.
  • Make sure that the protein powder you use is paleo-approved if that's what you need.
