These doughnuts are to die for! Everything you love about the season all rolled up into one sweet dough. The warmth of the pumpkin pie spice, and the cake like texture of the doughnuts are an amazing pair. I have made this very recipe a few times, once with dairy, and the other with dairy substitutes (almond milk..etc) both have turned out great. My favorite piece of this recipe was the time I spent making them. Brody is always by my side when baking and cooking. He has a specific chair he pulls up to the countertop in excitement, and always says either “Mom, what you making?” Or my favorite, “Okay now we need…” As I list off what ingredient comes next. He melts my heart, and I encourage every parent to cook with their children. Yes, I had a two year old AND a kitchen floor covered in flour, but it is so worth it when he gets to see the end result of what HE made. We will definitely be coming up with seasonal inspired doughnuts in our house from now on!
