Gluten-Free Baked Pumpkin Donuts

Baked pumpkin donuts are a family favorite around here. If your family is anything like ours you love all things pumpkin. We love the color of pumpkins, the flavor of pumpkins, and we even love the word pumpkin. Pumpkin just evokes happiness in our family that we all agree is indescribable. And adding pumpkin to coffee? That is just pure bliss. We’ll chat about that another day (or you can click here for our favorite keto pumpkin spice latte recipe).

Today we are sharing a recipe for baked pumpkin donuts. We are excited to make these goodies over the weekend (after all it’s never too early or late to cook pumpkin-flavored things). These are great with your favorite coffee, tea, or glass of milk. Hope you love these as much as we do!
