Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.
- In a large bowl, sift together whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin spice, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk soy milk and apple cider vinegar. Let sit for 1 minute.
- Add sugar, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and oil to the wet mixture and whisk until smooth.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Transfer batter to a piping bag or zip-top bag, pipe into 6 donut wells.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire rack.
