Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
  1. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice & salt in a large bowl
  2. In a separate bowl, mix pumpkin puree, egg, and butter
  3. Pour wet mixture into dry mixture & stir with a spatula until fully incorporated
  4. Set aside to infuse the flavours a little bit
  5. Heat oil in a frying pan to 325°F (160°C).
  6. While oil is heating, use your hands to shape and roll the pumpkin donut dough into balls. (Greasing your hands with pam is HIGHLY recommended)
  7. Fry the dough balls until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes (sticky dough is completely normal!)
  8. Drain them on a paper towel
  9. Roll your holes in cinnamon sugar (optional)
  10. Enjoy!

Notes

If you would prefer to roll these in pumpkin pie spice and sugar, that works beautifully too! This recipe makes about 15 donut holes depending on how large you scoop your dough. I like to use a small 1inch ice cream scooper, your batter will puff up in the oil, so don't make them too big to ensure the dough cooks.
