Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 325°F. Spray a donut pan with cooking spray and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer, stir together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, salt and baking soda. Add pumpkin puree, eggs, milk and butter. Beat on low speed until the batter is thick and a little sticky.
Transfer batter to a piping bag or a large ziplock bag with the end cut off.
Pipe the batter into the pan, filling about ½ of the way up. Bake for 10-14 minutes, checking periodically. Immediately transfer to a wire rack and let cool slightly.
Mix together confectioners’ sugar and espresso until you have a smooth but slightly thick frosting. Dip or drizzle the frosting on top of the donut.
