    3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and vinegar. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
    4. Using a pastry bag, squeeze the batter into the donut ring. Bake for 7-9 minutes, until a tester comes out clean.

    📖 Variations

    • 2 Large egg whites can be substituted for the whole egg.

    • Substitute unsweetened applesauce for the pumpkin puree.
    • Make donut holes by using a mini muffin tin to bake the donuts and sprinkle with sugar free powdered sugar.

    💭 Tips

    • A ziploc bag works just as well as a pastry bag for piping the batter into the donut pans. Just fill a gallon sized bag with the batter and snip one corner from the bottom of the bag to pipe the batter.

      Pumpkin is definitely a great way to add moistness without adding fat. And you get all that fiber too...BONUS! These look amazing!
