Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 10 mins
Servings: 24 donut holes
Difficulty: EasyIngredients
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup melted butter (for coating)
1/2 cup sugar (for coating)
2 teaspoons cinnamon (for coating)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes.
Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, form the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter.
Place the donut holes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving space between them.
Air fry for 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through. You may need to do this in batches.
While the donut holes are still warm, brush them with melted butter and roll them in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon until fully coated.
Allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
Chef’s Tips
Make sure your pumpkin puree is not too watery; drain excess moisture if necessary.
Experiment with different spices, such as ginger or cloves, for added flavor.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container; they can be reheated in the air fryer for a few minutes.
