🍁 Maple Pumpkin Mochi Donuts 🍂
Pumpkin spice lovers, this one's for you! Imagine combining the cozy flavors of pumpkin and maple with the chewy, squishy goodness of mochi. That's exactly what these Maple Pumpkin Mochi Donuts deliver—a fall dessert that’s both unique and indulgent. 🎃✨
Ingredients You'll Need:
Pumpkin Purée: Canned or homemade, whatever’s easier, but it’s bringing that cozy fall flavor.
Sweet Rice Flour: This is where the mochi magic happens—chewy goodness.
Coconut Milk: Keeps it fluffy and rich, like a pumpkin cloud.
Warm Spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves—because if it ain’t spiced, is it even fall?
Brown Sugar & Butter: Brings that caramel vibe to each bite.
Vanilla Extract & Eggs: Gotta bring the whole thing together, like a well-rehearsed family reunion.
Baking Time 🎉
Preheat that oven to 350°F (177°C) and get your donut pans ready by greasing them with a little oil or butter.
Mix the wet ingredients: butter, brown sugar, eggs, coconut milk, pumpkin purée, vanilla, and salt.
Stir in the dry ingredients: spices, sweet rice flour, and baking powder. You should get a soft batter. (Pro tip: if the batter feels too wet, let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken up.)
Use a Ziploc bag as a makeshift piping bag to fill the donut molds—no mess, no stress! Bake for 12-14 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Maple Glaze Magic 🍁
While the donuts are cooling, whisk up a simple maple glaze and crush some candied pecans for topping. Once the donuts are cool, dip them into the glaze and sprinkle the pecans on top for that crunchy, sweet finish. 😍
Why You'll Love These Donuts
Listen up. These donuts got that chewy mochi texture thanks to the sweet rice flour—like biting into a squishy dream. Then you got the fall flavors rollin' in hard—pumpkin, maple, and spices. It's like a leaf pile for your taste buds, bro. 🍁 And don’t even worry about making a mess—just use a Ziploc to pipe these bad boys. Minimal cleanup, maximum flavor.
Tips for Perfect Mochi Donuts
Adjust Your Spices: Love cinnamon? Add more! Not a fan of cloves? Skip them. Customize the spice level to your taste.
Storage: These donuts last up to 3 days at room temp or 3 months in the freezer. Just microwave them before eating to bring back that soft, chewy texture.
