Instructions

- In a large bowl cream (mix until well incorporated) the pumpkin, sugar and unsalted butter with an electric mixer. Once mixed together, add the eggs one at a time.
- Add the milk, sour cream and vanilla extract. Mix until incorporated.
- Add the ginger, nutmeg, allspice, salt and cinnamon. Mix until well combined.
- Turn off the mixer and fold in the dried cranberries.
- Spoon the mixture into mini donut tins, fill halfway. Pound the tin on the countertop to remove any air bubbles.
- Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven once golden and cooked all the way thru. Let the muffins sit in the tins for five minutes, then remove and let cool on a cooling rack.
- Once completely cool, dip the tops of the donuts into the pumpkin spiced glaze. If adding sprinkles do so at this point. Place on parchment paper to dry.
