Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly spray a mini muffin pan with oil.
Combine the flour, pumpkin spice, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl.
In a small blender, blend the pumpkin, cottage cheese, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla.
Stir in the oil.
Pour the liquid mixture over the dry mixture and stir just until combined (don’t overmix! This is important).
Use a small cookie scoop to scoop dough into the muffin tray (about 1 ½ inch rounds).
Bake for 14-15 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then on a wire rack for about 5-10 minutes.
Mix the cinnamon and sugar together, then dip each donut hole into the melted butter and then into the cinnamon sugar topping.
