These delicious gluten-free maple pumpkin donuts are all I need on a cold fall day. Fluffy, soft, and topped with a naturally sweet maple glaze, it’s beyond delicious. Super easy to make and a lot healthier than fried donuts. Perfect treat to enjoy during holiday season.

Second weekend of snow here in Colorado and I am dreaming of all the holiday treats I’ll be making this season. While I can’t wait to dig into all the Christmas goodies it’s I’ve been absolutely loving the pumpkin spice. Here are some of my favorite pumpkin recipes:

I loved making these baked pumpkin bread donuts. It’s a simple a blender recipe which I love making since they’re so easy. They  will be ready to  be glazed in under 35 minutes. That means you can enjoy them in no time whenever you feel like it. It doesn’t get much better than that, right?

Well it does, these tasty guys are gluten-free, dairy-free and refined sugar-free. Plus they are baked, not fried. You’ll get to eat two without guilt instead of just one 😛

One of my favorite things about donuts, you get to glaze them with whatever topping you prefer. Personally I always use a chocolate glaze but this maple butter glaze works perfectly with the pumpkin spice. If that doesn’t sound good to you, there’s always the option to sugar coat them or dip them in white chocolate. The possibilities are endless 😛

If you’re like me and you love em baked here are some of my favorite donut recipes worth checking out:

How to prepare these incredible maple pumpkin donuts

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a donut pan with coconut oil. I used this silicone donut pan. The silicone makes it easier to remove the donuts after baking. 

In a high speed blender or food processor add all ingredients and process until completely smooth. This will take around 5-10 minutes depending on what kitchen appliance is used.

Transfer bath into piping bag for a non-messy transition and pipe into the donut pan. Bake for about 20-25 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.  Let cool for about 10 minutes on a cooling rack before glazing.

To prepare the glaze add maple butter into a small pan or pot and heat over low. Once the maple butter has thinned dip the donuts and let sit for about 10-15 minutes.

Serve immediately and store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
