Air Fryer, Homemade Glazed Pumpkin Donuts. These were so easy to make and my kids absolutely loved them. I loved making them because the entire kitchen smelled like fall.
There is nothing in fall like walking up to a great batch of homemade donuts. This is a great recipe as the pumpkin really gives you a perfectly moist donut.

What Donut Pan Can You Use in the Air Fryer?
There are two donut pans that I recommend for the air fryer. One is the one I used in this recipe, which I really like, and I highly recommend, if you have an air fryer oven. If you have an air fryer basket, I purchased this mold back in 2017. It is made of silicone, therefore I just cut it out and made it fit my air fryer.
