For Halloween, we love to make these donuts. They are also always a hit at a children's party to make together with friends or to hand out.

Preparation method

How do you make this?

Put the milk, yeast, egg, pumpkin, and oil in a tall measuring cup and mix until smooth.

If you have lumps, strain the mixture through a sieve.

Mix the flour, coconut blossom sugar, salt, and spices in a large mixing bowl or food processor with a kneading hook.

Add the milk and pumpkin mixture and mix for 5 minutes with a spoon or machine until you get elastic dough. The dough should not break apart when you pinch a piece off.

Cover the mixture with a towel and let it rest for an hour.

Preheat the fryer.

Dust the work surface with flour and pour the dough onto it.

Dust the dough with flour and press it down as evenly as possible to about 1.5 centimeters thick. Note: the dough should not stick to the bottom anymore.

Press a circle into the flour and cut out as many circles as possible with a diameter of about 8 centimeters.

Then cut smaller circles of about 3 centimeters in diameter from the larger circles.

Take the basket out of the fryer, put some flour on your hands, and place the dough rings in the fryer.

Fry each side for 1 to 2 minutes in vegetable oil at 165 °C. Work with a pair of tongs.

Place the fried rings on paper towels and let them cool.

Mix the cream with powdered sugar and optionally put the cream in a piping bag.

And now for the fun part: decorating donuts together! Have fun.
