I feel like Homer Simpson does about donuts. They’ll be gone at the end of October, and I’m stockpiling them like crazy. I’ve looked and can’t find any copycat recipes online. I’m not sure what the jammy filling is, pumpkin butter (I never had any)? Do you think pumpkin butter and…soft molasses cookies? Soft oatmeal cookies? Probably just as well they aren’t available all year…
