Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Donuts
These baked pumpkin chocolate chip donuts are soft, fluffy, and coated in a pumpkin-spiced sugar. They come together in just one bowl and take only 20 minutes from start to finish!
Ingredients you’ll need
- Butter: melted butter goes into the donut batter and is also used for dipping after they’re baked
- Sugar: a mix of granulated sugar and brown sugar for the perfect sweetness
- Egg: one egg is all you need
- Pumpkin puree: make sure you’re using 100% pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie mix!
- Vanilla extract: just a teaspoon for flavor
- All purpose flour: for the base of the donuts
- Pumpkin spice: for both the batter and sugar coating
- Cinnamon: for the sugar coating
- Baking powder and baking soda: these help the donuts rise and get fluffy
- Salt: just a pinch
- Chocolate chips: these get folded in the batter at the end!
Make Ahead & Storage
How to store: These donuts are best served the day they’re made. Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days.
Can I freeze baked donuts? Absolutely! Freeze them uncoated in a bag or container for up to a month. When you’re ready to serve, warm them in the oven and dip in butter and pumpkin spice sugar.
