These easy baked vegan pumpkin donuts with a cinnamon sugar coating are soft, moist, and fluffy. They're family friendly and perfect for welcoming the fall season.
Preheat the oven to 350F and prepare a donut pan with cooking spray.
Whisk together flour, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
Stir in pumpkin puree, melted vegan butter, dairy-free milk, and apple cider vinegar.
Pipe batter into the prepared donut pan, filling about ¾ of the way full.
Bake for about 10 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from oven and let cool for about 5-10 minutes.
Flip baked donuts onto a cooling rack. To make cinnamon sugar coating, start by melting vegan butter. In a small bowl, whisk together sugar and cinnamon.
Brush the tops of each donut with melted butter and dip into the cinnamon sugar.
