Don’t you love it when the whole house smells like pumpkin spice donuts? Wait, vegan pumpkin spice donuts? Even better! Those are the best days in my opinion. I absolutely love Fall and all that comes with it. Especially the holidays!

It’s September! Fall Baking Starts Now!

It seems like I wait all year long for the holiday season. Every year when I was little I would start to get so excited right around September. You know, the kind of childish excitement that has you convinced that you really may at least pass or otherwise just fall over and die of it.

I love to get festive and decorate. Nothing makes me happier than putting up our Christmas tree and singing Christmas carols. Sorry, that’s skipping ahead a little. First is Halloween, which I am not a huge fan of actually celebrating or even the whole trick or treating thing. No, but I do love a good scary movie marathon. We have a tradition of making caramel corn and watching the Shining every year. What are your traditions?

Okay, Let Me Tell You About The BEST Pumpkin Spice Donuts!

So I made these pumpkin spice doughnuts and oh my goodness, they are amazing. The first batch I made was completely devoured by my family. Like I said, the whole house smelled like pumpkin spice. It just made me want to smile, a lot. With today being only the second day of fall I thought this would be a good recipe to post today.

I have all kinds of recipes planned for the rest of this month and next. When I say planned that actually means I have ideas that popped into my head and it lasted longer than a millisecond. That is about the extent of my planning. I told you, I am hopelessly unorganized. I did remember to get a donut pan though. That’s actually something you might need that you can order. These donut pans are great to keep around.

  4. Dip each doughnut in melted butter then in cinnamon and sugar. Serve warm or place on cooling rack to finish cooling.

Recipe Notes

If you have trouble finding coconut cream at your local grocery store it's completely fine to use full-fat coconut milk and scrape the cream off of the top. Just be sure that it's cold enough to separate.
