10 Minute Baked Pumpkin Spice Doughnut Holes Recipe

In fall, it seems like pumpkin spice stuff pops up everywhere. There’s a great reason for seeing the sultry spicy treats anywhere you look- perfectly pumpkin treats are the most comforting fall treat. This year, I have a few special pumpkin spice additions to my favorite recipes- and today’s 10 Minute Baked Pumpkin Spice Doughnut Holes are no less than a gigantic hit in our house!

These doughnut holes are delicious, moist, full of ginger and cinnamon- with fall’s must have spice profile. My kids love these fresh and hot out of my cake pop machine- and they love to help roll them in cinnamon sugar before popping a bunch of them in their mouths and washing it all down with some apple cider. It’s the perfect autumn breakfast!

I use a cakepop machine to make these- but if you have a doughnut hole pan, you’ll need to bake at 350 for 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the doughnut holes comes clean. You can also make these as muffins- just adjust baking time to 15-20 minutes or until browned and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes clean.
