Tis the season, there is a nip in the air! Are you ready for fall cooking & baking? This recipe actually belongs to Sue Ally,s "PUMPKIN MINI-DONUTS" I made a few changes to use up the butternut squash from my garden, I had frozen. I have done this for my pumpkin pie so why not for these delicious donuts. I I have nothing against pumpkin , but my freezer is full of a bumper crop of BUTTERNUT SQUASH. Recipe with a star before the item, is my rendition of this wonderful recipe. Nancy. 9/29/13

How To Make oven"pumpkin"donuts shh.. i use butternut squash

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine everything EXCEPT the flour, beat until smooth. Now add the flour, and stir until just combined. .Spoon or pipe batter into greased mini donut pans.

Step 2

Bake for about minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean,. *I had to bake mine 15-18 minutes...till done Remove from pans and place on a cooling rack to cool.
Step 3

While warm but not hot, place a few at a time in a plastic bag, with a cinnamon/sugar combination, and shake gently to coat. Enjoy! *I let mine cool then sprinkle powder sugar on top. MMMMm...GOOD
Step 4

This makes 24 delicious donuts. .This is a picture of the baking pans I use. I will have to ask Sue Alley.. what kind of pans she used...????
Step 5

* My butternut squash ..thawed out, and ready to be..."pumpkin" I think you could make cup cakes from this batter... if you do not have donut pans.
