Yield: 6

Author: Adriannexo

Ingredients US Metric

For the donuts

• 1.5 cups apple cider
• 1 egg
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 3 tbsp butter, melted
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 3/4 cups flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 1/8 tsp allspice

For the spiced sugar topping

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp allspice
• 1/2 cup butter, melted

Instructions

1. Pour cider in a saucepan and cover over medium heat until it’s reduced to 1/3 cup. It will become a thick syrup. Keep aside and allow it to cool down.
2. In a large bowl, add egg, sugar, brown sugar, butter, milk, vanilla and mix until smooth. Set aside.
3. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice.
4. Dump this dry mixture into the wet mixture, along with the reduced apple cider, and mix until just combined. Don’t over-mix!
5. Pour batter in a greased donut pan, filling halfway up.
6. Tip: Pour batter in piping bag and pipe batter in the donut pan. It’s easier and neater.
7. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 10 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
8. Allow the donuts to cool down for 5 minutes at room temperature and then remove from pan.
9. While the donuts are cooling, mix together sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice in a wide bowl.
10. Brush melted butter all over each donut and roll in the bowl of sugar until fully coated.
