Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup apple cider
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a donut pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, apple cider, 1/4 cup melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spoon or pipe the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the donuts are baking, prepare the cinnamon sugar coating. In a shallow dish, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Melt the 1/4 cup butter in another shallow dish.
- Once the donuts are baked, let them cool in the pan for a few minutes before carefully removing them.
- While the donuts are still warm, dip each donut first into the melted butter, then into the cinnamon sugar mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Place the coated donuts on a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a stronger apple cider flavor, you can reduce the apple cider by 1 tablespoon and replace it with apple cider concentrate.
- Ensure your apple cider is at room temperature for best results.
- You can add a pinch of ground cloves to the donut batter for extra spice.
