Ingredients

1 tablespoon flaxseed meal

2 tablespoons warm water

1/4 cup soy milk

1/4 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

tiny pinch of ground cloves

1/2 cup sugar

2 tablespoons margarine

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 cup cooked pumpkin puree (or canned pumpkin)

Spiced Sugar: 1/2 cup sugar, 2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

Directions

In separate small bowls mix together flaxseed meal with the water and the soy milk with the vinegar. Set aside for a few minutes.

Mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices.

Beat together the sugar and margarine. It won't cream together but you want to evenly distribute the margarine.

Add the flaxseed meal and beat until creamy. Add the vanilla, pumpkin and soy milk mixture and stir together.

Add the dry ingredients in 3-4 stages mixing almost until combined each time. With the final addition of dry ingredients mix just until combined.

Cover and chill the dough for at least an hour.

Lightly flour a baking sheet and set aside. Press the dough out to 1/2 inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut the holes with a 1 inch circle cutter. Set the cut holes on the floured baking sheet. Press the scrapes together and repeat until all the dough is cut into circles.

Heat several inches of oil in a heavy bottomed pot slowly over medium low heat. Have a frying thermometer ready and watch the oil's temperature.

Set a cooling rack over a baking sheet near the frying area. Begin frying donuts when the oil reaches 365-370 degrees F. Gently drop 3-5 holes at a time into the hot oil. Rotate the donut holes with a wire spider strainer or slotted spoon for 2 minutes. Remove and allow to cool slightly before tossing in spiced sugar.

These are perfect for the fall when so much pumpkin and squash is available.
I love the addition of the flax seed meal in this recipe too.
