Baked Pumpkin Spice Latte Donuts
These pumpkin spice latte donuts have all the flavors of your favorite fall drink – pumpkin spice, fresh pumpkin, espresso, cream, and maple syrup.
Have you noticed how each year Starbucks sneaks in Pumpkin Spice Latte a bit earlier? This year was no exception! Seeing their return inspired me to create these Pumpkin Spice Latte donuts. They are baked which makes them a little healthier and delicious. The donut is a baked pumpkin spice made with pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice, and topped with a simple maple cream glaze infused with a shot of espresso.
