The same goes for breakfast. Quick breakfasts don’t have to be limited to cereal and Pot Tarts. These easy homemade pumpkin spice donuts are inspired by those delicious quick bread recipes. Even the icing recipes are fast and easy. Find out how to take your breakfast game to the next level with the recipes below.

After our grocery freeze earlier this year I’ve been trying to buy only food needed for our meal plan. It has been fantastic because it means less food waste. (If you haven’t tried a grocery freeze yet, you should totally check it out.) This new method of shopping has a small downside. Earlier this week we still had one day until grocery day and we were out of breakfast food. Instead of running out to buy something I decided to surprise the kids with donuts. Of course, in full pumpkin mode still, these easy homemade pumpkin spice donuts were created using staples we already had.
