Baked Pumpkin Doughnuts with Maple-Cinnamon Glaze | I’ve been having a hard time switching over into fall mode. I think it’s because the daytime temps here have still been in the 80s. While other people have been throwing out pumpkin and apple and comfort food, I’ve been hanging onto summer foods like crazy. Up first in a line of many upcoming pumpkin recipes are these doughnuts. If this is what fall is going to taste like this year, I’m regretting that I didn’t start earlier!!

Cottage Country Style Chelsea Buns There are two kinds of chelsea buns. There’s the traditional British style, which are sweet rolls with a sticky glaze and studded with currants. I’m sure they’re very good, but these aren’t those kind of chelsea buns. These are the kind of chelsea buns that you’ll find in small bakeries and Farmer’s Markets all over cottage country in the central Ontario regions of Muskoka, Haliburton and Kawartha Lakes (and probably beyond, but I can only speak with confidence about this area). For some reason, they’re almost always made loaf shaped. This recipe comes from a friend of my Mom. The best part of chelsea buns for me, is to eat them by unrolling them! Summary: These are the chelsea buns that are a staple in cottage areas of central Ontario. Ingredients Instructions Combine 2 1/4 cups of the flour, the white sugar, salt and yeast in a large bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer. Prep time: 15 min | Cook time: 35 min | Total time: 2 hours Number of servings (yield): 8 rolls/1 9×5-inch pan

They are super scrumptious and I encourage you to try them out yourself and see how long they last in your house!
