Krispy Kreme’s Long-Awaited Fall Doughnut Is Officially Back—But for One Weekend Only

There are certain fall favorites we’ve come to expect at fast food chains when the seasons change. Pumpkin Munchkins, baked apple croissants, and of course pumpkin spice lattes, signal to the world that it’s time to throw on a sweater and get into the fall spirit.

So, when our anticipated favorites don’t make a comeback, it’s disappointing to say the least. Last week, Krispy Kreme unveiled its seasonal Golden Harvest menu, and while the Salted Caramel Cheesecake and Oatmeal Kreme Pie Doughnuts sounded delicious, we were quick to notice one beloved treat was missing, leaving us a bit heartbroken.

Well, Krispy Kreme heard our cries, and now they’re giving fans the chance to enjoy a seasonal classic—but not for long.

Krispy Kreme Brings Back the Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed Doughnut

It turns out Krispy Kreme’s fall menu was just a warm-up—because now its officially kicking off autumn with the exciting return of the Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed Doughnut. This fan-favorite has become a fall tradition in its own right, offering that perfect balance of sweet and spice with the signature melt-in-your-mouth texture Krispy Kreme is known for.

Fans have been craving the pumpkin-spiced treat for weeks, calling it the best doughnut in Krispy Kreme’s entire fall lineup. Whether you’re grabbing one on the go or pairing it with a warm cup of coffee on the couch, this doughnut is a must-have for crisp mornings.

“People love our Pumpkin Spice Latte and Cake doughnut, but Pumpkin Spice Season is not complete without the incredible Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed doughnut,” said Krispy Kreme’s Global Chief Brand Officer, Dave Skena.

But the pumpkin doughnut’s return does come with a catch—it’s only available for three days. From Sept. 20-22, the first official weekend of fall, the seasonal sweets will be available for purchase individually or by the dozen in Krispy Kreme stores.

Need another reason to hit the doughnut shop this weekend? We didn’t think so, but here it is anyway: With the purchase of any dozen at regular price at participating shops, you can also score an Original Glazed dozen for just $2. So, whether you love the PSOG or simply the OG, don’t miss out on this sweet, sweet weekend promotion.
