For the Batter

  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder Use carefully to avoid a bitter taste.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Optional nutmeg can enhance the spicy profile.
  • 3/4 cup Sugar Try granulated or coconut sugar for a healthier option.
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Applesauce Replace with mashed bananas for a different flavor.
  • 1 cup Non-Dairy Milk Choose almond, soy, or oat milk for varied flavors.

Equipment

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Gluten-Free Pumpkin Donut Holes
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease the donut hole pan with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and sugar. Stir until evenly blended.
  3. Add in the pumpkin puree, unsweetened applesauce, and non-dairy milk. Stir well until a smooth batter forms.
  4. Fill each cavity of the donut hole pan with the batter, aiming for about 2/3 full.
  5. Bake for 14 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into a donut hole; it should come out clean or with a few crumbs.
  6. Once baked, cool the donut holes for 5 minutes and then roll in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar.
