Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and prepare the 6-count donut pan with nonstick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, ground nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix pumpkin puree, brown sugar, milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined.
  5. Spoon the batter into the donut pan, filling each cavity two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Prepare the glaze by whisking powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, maple syrup, and milk to your desired thickness.
  9. Once cooled, dip the tops of the donuts in the glaze and allow excess to drip off.
  10. Let the glazed donuts sit for 10-15 minutes to set the glaze.
