Apple Cider Donuts

There’s nothing more classic than a batch of apple cider donuts to cozy up your home as the temperatures outside begin to drop. This recipe brings together the quintessential flavors of fall, with the apple & cinnamon. The best part is coating each one with cinnamon sugar!

Time: 30 minutes · Servings: 12 donuts

While this recipe is for a cake donut, don’t be afraid to find a fried donut recipe online to try out as well! The only difference is that you will make a dough instead of a batter, and so will cut out your shapes before frying (as shown). This cake donut recipe on the other hand is simple and a familiar process to most since it resembles the process for baking something like cupcakes. The result is deliciousness! So no need to roll, cut, and fry here!
