How To Make Air Fryer Pumpkin Spice Donut Holes
Here’s a step-by-step guide to creating these sweet treats:
Step 1: Prepare the Batter Combine the wet ingredients, pumpkin puree, and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add in the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a smooth batter is formed.
Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees F (175°C) for a couple of minutes. This ensures even cooking of the donut holes.
Step 2: Add batter to silicone mold.
Step 3: Cook in the Air Fryer: Set cook time for 10-12 minutes or until the golden brown donut holes are cooked through. Halfway through the cooking time, you can gently shake the basket to ensure they brown evenly.
Coat the Donut Holes: Once cooked, roll the warm donut holes in granulated sugar or a cinnamon-sugar mixture, depending on your preference. Then, let the little donut holes on the wire rack for a few minutes.
Serve and Enjoy: Serve the donut holes warm for the best flavor and texture.
