Ingredients

For the donuts

  • 16.5 oz box spice cake mix
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tablespoon butter melted

For the streusel topping

  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 tablespoon butter melted

For the glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoon milk

Instructions

To make the donuts

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease your muffin tin(s) with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, pumpkin, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.
  • Scoop the batter into a piping bag or large zip top bag. Snip off the tip/one corner of the bag and pipe the batter into the donut pan, filling about halfway.

To make the streusel

  • In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the streusel topping. Stir until everything is combined and a bit crumbly.
  • Top the donuts with ~1 tbs of the streusel mixture.
  • Bake 8-10 minutes. Allow the donuts to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to finish cooling completely.

To make the glaze

  • Stir the powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl until smooth and the desired consistency has been reached. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled donuts.
