Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a Donut Pan with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, brown sugar, salt, baking soda, and pumpkin pie spice.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine eggs, pumpkin, and applesauce.
Pour the wet ingredients into the center of the dry ingredients. Stir until combined.
Fold the pecans into the batter.
Fill a pastry bag or a plastic bag with batter. Snip off a corner of the bag and fill the donut pan cavities. Using the back of a spoon, smooth the batter.
Bake 8-10 minutes, turning the pan at the 5-minute mark. Donuts are done when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove the donuts immediately from the pan to a cooling rack.
Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and enough milk to make a thin glaze. Drizzle each donut and sprinkle with additional pecans.
