Tis the season, there is a nip in the air! Are you ready for fall cooking & baking? This recipe actually belongs to Sue Ally,s "PUMPKIN MINI-DONUTS" I made a few changes to use up the butternut squash from my garden, I had frozen. I have done this for my pumpkin pie so why not for these delicious donuts. I I have nothing against pumpkin , but my freezer is full of a bumper crop of BUTTERNUT SQUASH. Recipe with a star before the item, is my rendition of this wonderful recipe. Nancy. 9/29/13
