Mmm, I love baked pumpkin doughnuts! I need to try your cream cheese glaze!
Oh those look amazing and simple enough to make! Anything pumpkin and I am in!
Mm, these look glorious, Melissa! Donuts are my favorite and that cream cheese glaze looks incredible!
These look easy enough for even me!
These look and sound so wonderful! Do you think you could freeze them, either before or after glazing? I simply do NOT need to sit around and eat all these at once. 🙂
Yes, I think that’s a great idea! They are really moist, so I think they will handle freezing just fine!
