Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a donut pan with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, ground cloves, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a thick, smooth batter forms.
Transfer the batter into a large ziplock bag or pastry bag and cut a small hole in one corner.
Pipe the batter evenly into each cavity of the prepared donut pan, filling about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the donuts are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the donuts from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then gently transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the donuts as they are, or sprinkle with a bit of additional cinnamon sugar if desired. Enjoy!
