Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C). Oil generously two 12-hole mini muffin pans with cooking oil. This recipe makes about 16 donut holes, so you don't have to oil all of them.
In a mixing bowl, stir oil, pumpkin puree, pumpkin spices, brown sugar, and self-rising flour until it forms a sticky muffin batter.
Use a small cookie dough scoop to fill each muffin hole.
Bake the donut holes for 13-15 minutes at 350 °F (180 °C) until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Flip the pan upside down on a cooling rack and let them cool for a few minutes.
Meanwhile, melt some coconut oil in a small mixing bowl in the microwave in 30-second bursts.
In a small bowl, stir sugar and pumpkin spices.
Use a pastry brush to brush each muffin donut hole and immediately roll it into the pumpkin spice sugar.
Notes
Note 1: Make sure the oil you pick has low flavor, any oil workNote 2: Coconut sugar or sugar works as well.
