Pumpkin Donut Holes

This might be my roommate's all-time favorite thing I have made.  Pretty sure he decided his life was complete when these appeared at home one night.

And then I took these to work.  And all the girls thought they had died and gone to Heaven.

Warm donut holes make me happy.  And when there's pumpkin involved, it's even better!

Ingredients:

• 1 3/4 cup flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice
• 1/3 cup oil
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 3/4 cup canned pumpkin
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 Tbsp cinnamon

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350.

Spray a 24-count mini-muffin tin with Pam.

Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and spice with a whisk.  In a larger bowl, combine oil, sugar, egg, vanilla, and milk with an electric mixer.

Slowly stir flour mixture into pumpkin mixture and combine.  Don't over-mix!

Spoon about 1 Tbsp of batter into each muffin cup. 

Bake about 10 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Let muffins cool in pan about 2 minutes.  Combine sugar and cinnamon in one bowl, and keep melted butter in another bowl.  Dip each muffin in the butter, then in the cinnamon-sugar.
