American · Dessert · 30 min total

These soft, cakey doughnuts are infused with the tangy flavor of apple cider and coated in cinnamon sugar, making them a perfect fall treat.

Ingredients

• 1 cup apple cider
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• 1/4 cup buttermilk
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• For coating: 1/2 cup granulated sugar mixed with 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a doughnut pan.
2. In a small saucepan, bring apple cider to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
4. In another bowl, whisk together egg, buttermilk, melted butter, vanilla, and the reduced apple cider.
5. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Spoon batter into prepared doughnut pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
8. While still warm, brush each doughnut with melted butter (optional) and dip in cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat.

Tips

• For extra apple flavor, add 1/2 cup finely chopped apple to the batter.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• These doughnuts are best enjoyed the day they are made.
