Easy baked pumpkin donuts start with yellow cake mix and pumpkin, then get a generous tumble in spiced cinnamon sugar. Soft, sweet, and ready in about 20 minutes because nobody has time for a donut-related quest before breakfast.
1 Preheat the oven to 425℉. Spray a donut pan with no-stick cooking spray and set aside.
0 Stir the cake mix and pumpkin together until there are no more streaks of cake mix.
2 Fill a gallon sized ziploc with the pumpkin mixture and cut off about 1/2 inch at one of the corners.
3 Use the ziploc to fill the donut pan cavities almost full.
4 Bake for 8 minutes, checking at the 6 minute mark. The donuts will read 200℉ on an instant read thermometer. If you've filled the pans more full they may need up to 10 minutes.
5 Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes.
8 Gently roll the warm donuts in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
