Joy Bauer’s Two-Ingredient Pumpkin Doughnut Holes
One of our favorite recipes this time of year is Joy Bauer’s two-ingredient pumpkin doughnut holes. This easy fall dessert requires just a box of vanilla cake mix and a can of pumpkin puree. Mix them together in a large bowl, scoop the batter into a well-oiled doughnut hole tin or mini muffin pan, and bake at 350 degrees F (or 175 degrees C) until golden brown and fluffy.
For an extra fall kick, try rolling the warm doughnut holes in a little cinnamon sugar after using a pastry brush to lightly coat with a touch of butter. This is a fun baking project for kids of all ages.

Fun Variations for Every Craving
For a bakery-quality finish, try drizzling them with a light maple glaze or dipping them into melted chocolate. If you want to add a nutritious edge, stir in pure pumpkin with a pinch of cinnamon and a splash of vanilla extract for a boost of beta carotene and flavor. The addition of real pumpkin puree gives this recipe that sweet pumpkin treat experience with minimal effort and no difficult baking recipe required. You can also dust them with powdered sugar for a softer, snow-like effect that looks beautiful on a fall dessert table.

Pumpkin Joy Beyond the Kitchen
Seasonal Touches for Your Home
Add pumpkin joy to your front porch with a few of our mini pumpkins, or decorate the dining table with little sweets, fresh flowers, and fall candles for a cozy night in. Pair your treats with a cup of water, cider, or hot chocolate for the season’s coziest flavors and a warm welcome for guests.
Easy Ideas for the Whole Family
If you are looking for lots of fun flavor in your fall decorating, carve stringy fibers from your pumpkins for pumpkin cravings and save the pumpkin seeds for roasting. You can also use baby bear pumpkins from our farm for decorating, or make a to-make list of crafts like painted pumpkins and mini centerpieces that double as table decor.
