                         Doughnut Dough:
   3               cups  all-purpose flour
      1/3           cup  sugar
      1/2      teaspoon  salt
   2          teaspoons  instant yeast
   1         tablespoon  pumpkin pie spice
                         1 egg
      3/4           cup  milk
   4        tablespoons  butter -- melted
   1           teaspoon  vanilla extract
   6               cups  peanut oil -- or vegetable shortening, for frying
                         Pumpkin Pie Filling:
   1                cup  pumpkin puree
      1/2           cup  canned vanilla frosting
   1           teaspoon  pumpkin pie spice
      1/8      teaspoon  salt
                         Pumpkin Glaze:
   3        tablespoons  pumpkin puree
   2               cups  confectioners' sugar
   1         tablespoon  water
                         Pecan Topping:
   1                cup  finely chopped pecans
   2        tablespoons  light brown sugar
   1           teaspoon  ground cinnamon

For the Doughnut Dough, whisk flour, sugar, salt, yeast and pumpkin 
pie spice in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk egg, milk, 
melted butter and vanilla. Add wet ingredients to flour mixture, 
mixing until dough comes together. Mix until dough is well blended 
and begins to pull away from bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let 
rest 5 minutes. Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface. Knead 6 
to 8 minutes until dough forms a smooth, soft ball.

Spray large bowl with no stick cooking spray. Place dough ball in 
bowl. Spray lightly with no stick cooking spray. Cover with plastic 
wrap. Place in warm, draft-free place to rise until doubled in size, 
about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Meanwhile, for the Pumpkin Pie Spice Filling, whisk all ingredients 
in medium bowl until well blended. Transfer to piping bag fitted with 
small tip. Refrigerate until ready to fill doughnuts.

For the Glaze, whisk all ingredients in small bowl until smooth; set 
aside. For the Topping, mix all ingredients in separate small bowl; set aside.

Once dough has doubled in size, transfer to lightly floured surface. 
Knead 2 minutes to work out any large air bubbles, sprinkling with 
additional flour as needed if dough is sticky. Roll out dough into 
large circle, about 1/2-inch thick. Cut out doughnut shapes using a 
2-inch round cutter, re-rolling scraps as needed. Place doughnuts on 
a lightly floured rimmed baking sheet. Spray plastic wrap with 
no-stick cooking spray and cover doughnuts. Return doughnuts to a 
warm, draft-free place to rise 30 minutes to 1 hour longer or until 
dough is proofed and puffy.

Meanwhile, pour oil into large deep skillet, filling about 2 inches 
up sides of skillet. Heat oil to 350F. Working in batches of 4 to 6 
at a time, carefully place doughnuts in hot oil. Fry 2 minutes per 
side, until golden brown and puffed. Remove with tongs or a slotted 
spoon; place on wire rack lined with paper towels. Cool completely.

To fill doughnuts, use a wooden skewer or small paring knife to poke 
a hole in the side of each doughnut, being careful not to poke all 
the way through. Pipe Pumpkin Filling into prepared opening, dividing 
evenly among doughnuts. Once filled, dip top side of each doughnut in 
Glaze, allowing excess to drip off, then immediately dip to Pecan 
Topping. Turn right side up and place on wire rack to set. Serve immediately.

Test Kitchen Tip: To make this recipe in using your stand mixer 
fitted with a dough hook, prepare as directed, but instead of 
kneading by hand after dough has rested, mix on low speed 6 to 8 
minutes or until dough reaches desired texture.
