Mini Pumpkin Donuts

I LOVE Fall! I am so in love with Fall that I want every single day to go by as slooooooooow as possible.  Living in Arizona for the last 5 years has completely blocked Fall out of my mind.  It is still 100 degrees there right now!


I remember thinking that Arizona had Fall weather from November - May (now this isn't completely false) but there is a smell in the air and a crispness in the wind and a color to the trees that make Midwestern Falls the absolute BEST!

To get into the spirit, I made some scrumptious mini pumpkin donuts in my super cute mini donuts maker that I scored from my brothers "Goodwill Pile."  You know what they say... one man's trash is another man's treasure! And she sure is a treasure!




I made a box of Pumpkin bread from Trader Joe's thinking it was gluten free,,, whoops, it wasn't! So, I took those to work to spoil my co-workers.  Then, I was super jealous of the aroma, so I made my own, homemade, gluten-free mini pumpkin donuts!

Jealousy is a sickness and I needed to get well soon!

Mini Pumpkin Donuts:
(makes about 50 mini donuts)

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup gluten free flour
1 TBS flax seed
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 TBS honey
1 egg
1 cup pumpkin puree
1/3 cup coconut oil
1/3 cup water

Mix it all together and I scooped 1 tablespoon into each donut compartment (holds 6 at a time)
Let cool and enjoy!

If you don't have a handy dandy donut maker, I would love to hear how other people used this recipe! It was so delicious, I almost ate all the batter before the donuts were even cooked!
