Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup apple cider
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Topping:
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a donut pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the ½ cup granulated sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the egg until well combined.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider and vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the apple cider mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Spoon or pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the donuts cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While the donuts are cooling, prepare the topping by combining the ½ cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon in a shallow dish.
  11. Once the donuts have cooled slightly, gently roll each one in the cinnamon sugar mixture until evenly coated.

Notes

  • Ensure your apple cider is at room temperature for best results.
  • For an extra burst of apple flavor, you can add a tablespoon of unsweetened applesauce to the batter.
  • If you don’t have a donut pan, you can bake these as donut holes in mini muffin tins.
