Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour blend, almond flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin spice, and salt.

2. 2

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

3. 3

   Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.

4. 4

   Allow the batter to rest for 30 minutes to ensure hydration and remove the gritty texture.

5. 5

   Transfer the batter to a piping bag and fill donut cavities about 3/4 full.

6. 6

   Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges pull away slightly and the tops spring back when touched.

7. 7

   Let donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

8. 8

   Whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, milk, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to create the glaze.

9. 9

   Apply the glaze to the donuts while they are still barely warm to create a semi-set shell.
