Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ⅓ cup (154g) Spelt flour
- ½ tsp Baking soda
- 1 ½ tsp Baking powder
- ½ tsp Kosher salt
- ½ tsp Ceylon cinnamon
- ¼ tsp Ginger powder
- ¼ tsp Allspice powder
- ¼ tsp Nutmeg powder
- ¼ tsp Clove powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1 tbsp (14g) Coconut sugar
- 3 tbsp (50g) Pumpkin Puree
- 1 tbsp (16g) Vegan yogurt
- ¾ cup (180g) Plant milk
- 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
Cinnamon Glaze
- 3 tbsp (48g) Tahini
- 3 tbsp (72g) Date syrup ((favorite date syrup linked below))
- ¼ cup (60g) Plant milk
- 1 tsp Ceylon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a donut pan with cooking spray.
- In a bowl, add in the wet ingredients and whisk together. Then add in the spices, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk again.
- Finally, gently pour in the spelt flour and mix to combine. The batter will be quite thick. Allow the batter to rest for 5 minutes. Then, spoon the batter into the donut pan, aobut 1/4 per donut cavity. I recommend filling up the donut cavity almost till full for super fluffy and tall donuts.
- Pop the donuts into the oven and bake for 16 minutes until puffed and golden brown. While the donuts are baking, make the cinnamon glaze.
- Add all of the glaze ingredients into a pot on the stove and turn onto medium heat. Whisking occasionally, bring the glaze to a roiling boil. Let it cook away at a boil for about 30-45 seconds. Then turn off the heat and continue to whisk. Pour it into a bowl and set aside to cool.
- Once the donuts are done, remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan and cooling an additional 5 minutes.
- To glaze the donuts, simply dip each donut into the glaze and twist to get rid of the excess glaze. Repeat with the rest. Top with flaky salt and chopped pecans – optional. Enjoy!
