Ingredients:
Apple Cider Donuts
- 1 cup Apple Cider
- ½ cup Prairie Farms Buttermilk
- 1 Large Egg
- ½ tsp. Vanilla Extract
- 2 tbsp. Prairie Farms Unsalted Butter melted
- ⅓ cup Light Brown Sugar
- ¼ cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 ½ cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 tsp. Baking Powder
- ½ tsp. Baking Soda
- 1 tsp. Ground Cinnamon
- ¼ tsp. Ground Ginger
- ¼ tsp. Salt
- ⅛ tsp. Ground Nutmeg
Cinnamon Sugar
- ¼ cup Granulated Sugar
- ½ tsp. Ground Cinnamon
Directions:
- In a small saucepan, simmer apple cider over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it reduces to ½ cup, about 10-12 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat oven to 350℉. Lightly grease two 6-cavity donut pans with baking spray or butter and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk Prairie Farms Buttermilk, reduced cider, egg, vanilla, melted Prairie Farms Unsalted Butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and nutmeg.
- Add dry ingredients to wet mixture and stir gently until just combined (do not overmix).
- Spoon or pipe batter evenly into prepared donut pans, filling each cavity about ¾ full.
- Bake at 350° for 13-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean.
- Let donuts cool in their pans for about ten minutes, then carefully remove them.
- In a shallow bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon for coating. While donuts are still warm, press or roll them in cinnamon sugar until coated.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
