  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.
  6. Place the filled donut pan in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the donuts are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. While the donuts are baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
  8. Once melted, remove from heat and whisk in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and maple syrup until smooth and well combined.
  9. Once the donuts are baked and slightly cooled, dip each donut into the churro glaze, coating both sides evenly.
  10. Place the glazed donuts on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to catch any drips.
  11. Serve the churro pecan donuts warm or at room temperature.
