Pumpkin Spice Donuts with Coffee Glaze Recipe
Our delectable Pumpkin Latte … but make it a donut. Pumpkin purée makes these baked donuts moist and tender, and the glaze—made with strongly brewed Major Dickason’s Blend—gives them a not-too-sweet finish. Best of all, you probably already have the ingredients on hand.
