BAKED APPLE CIDER DONUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter two 6-cup donut pans.
• Pour apple cider into a saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and let it cook, watching carefully, until the cider is reduced to 1/2 cup. If it reduces too much, add enough water to make 1/2 cup. Set aside until needed.
• Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, cardamom, and nutmeg to a large bowl. Mix with a whisk until combined and set aside until needed.
• Whisk 1/2 cup white sugar, brown sugar, milk, 2 tablespoons melted butter, vanilla extract, and egg together in another bowl until combined. Add the apple cider reduction and the dry ingredients. Whisk together to form a slightly thick batter; do not overmix.
• Spoon or pipe the batter into the prepared donut pans, filling them about 3/4 of the way up.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until the tops are lightly browned, and the donuts spring back slightly to the touch, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pans before removing to a sheet pan lined with a silicone baking mat. Cut out any donut holes as necessary.
• If desired, while still slightly warm, brush the donuts lightly with remaining melted butter. Mix 1 cup white sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon together for topping in a shallow dish; toss in donuts to coat. Let cool completely before serving.

APPLE CIDER DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, bring cider to a rapid boil; cook over high heat until reduced by half, about 12 minutes. Cool completely., Whisk together flours, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda and spices. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, melted butter and cooled cider; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened (dough will be sticky). Refrigerate, covered, until firm enough to shape, about 1 hour., Divide dough in half. On a floured surface, pat each portion to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 3-in. doughnut cutter., In an electric skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 325°. Fry doughnuts, a few at a time, until golden brown, 2-3 minutes on each side. Fry doughnut holes, a few at time, until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 minute on each side. Drain on paper towels; cool slightly. If desired, dip doughnuts into glaze or sugar of your choice.

APPLE CIDER DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Pour the apple cider into a saucepan and bring it to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and boil until it is reduced to 1/4 cup, about 15 minutes. Set the concentrated boiled cider aside to cool.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir or whisk to blend thoroughly and set aside.
• In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk and eggs together until well blended. Whisk in the melted butter and vanilla extract.
• Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients along with the 1/4 cup of reduced apple cider, and mix to form a soft, well-blended dough. You can use a stand mixer with the paddle attachment for this step or mix by hand.
• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; sprinkle liberally with flour. With floured hands, pat the dough out onto the parchment paper to a thickness of about 3/8 inch to 1/2 inch. Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer for about 15 minutes, until firm and well chilled. Alternatively, refrigerate the dough for about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, pour about 2 to 3 inches of vegetable oil into a Dutch oven or large, heavy saucepan. Attach a deep-fry thermometer to the pan and heat the oil to 350 F.
• Remove the dough from the refrigerator or freezer and transfer it to a floured work surface. Cut the donuts out with a 3-inch doughnut cutter. Dip it into flour between cutting out the dough to keep the dough from sticking. Separate the donuts from the doughnut holes. Re-roll the dough as necessary and continue to cut out donuts until all of the dough is used.
• For the cinnamon sugar, combine the 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon in a bowl and set aside.
• Place paper towels on a baking sheet and set aside.
• Using a metal spatula or skimmer, lower the about 3 to 4 donuts into the hot oil. Fry the donuts on one side for 1 minute and then turn them over and fry for about 1 minute longer, or until golden brown. Carefully remove the donuts to the paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Repeat with the remaining donuts; fry the donuts holes last; they will take a bit less time.
• Dip the donuts into the cinnamon-sugar mixture while they are still warm, coating them completely or just the tops.

APPLE CIDER DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Core and coarsely chop the apples (do not peel). Combine with 1 1/2 cups cider in a medium saucepan over medium heat; cover and cook until softened, about 8 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking until the apples are tender and the cider is almost completely reduced, about 5 minutes. Puree with an immersion blender or in a food processor until smooth. Measure the sauce; you should have 1 cup. (Boil to reduce further, if necessary.) Let cool slightly.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a medium bowl.
• Beat 2/3 cup granulated sugar and the shortening in another bowl with a mixer on medium speed until sandy. Beat in the egg and yolk, then gradually mix in the applesauce, scraping the bowl. Beat in half of the flour mixture, then the buttermilk and vanilla, and then the remaining flour mixture. Mix to make a sticky dough; do not overmix.
• Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured sheet of parchment paper and pat into a 7-by-11-inch rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Simmer the remaining 1 cup cider in a small saucepan over medium heat until reduced to 1/4 cup. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar until smooth and glossy, then set aside. Mix the remaining 1 cup granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon in a shallow bowl; set aside for the topping.
• Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Cut the chilled dough into 12 rounds, using a floured 2 1/2- or 3-inch biscuit cutter, then cut out the middles with a 1-inch cutter (or use a doughnut cutter). Slip 2 or 3 doughnuts at a time into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side, adjusting the heat as needed. Transfer to the paper towels to drain.
• Dip one side of each doughnut in the cider glaze, letting the excess drip off; dip just the glazed side in the cinnamon-sugar or roll all over in cinnamon-sugar, if desired. Serve warm.

BOURBON APPLE CIDER DONUTS

Steps:

• Prepare the apples:.
• Peel and core the apples, cut into fourths and then into a small dice. You should have a generous cup and a half of apples. Place the butter in a small skillet, and cook over medium heat until the butter is golden brown. Pour the butter into a small dish and reserve for later. Add the apples to the sauté pan without cleaning or wiping it. There will be little brown flecks from the butter - you want these. Add the lemon juice and cook, stirring occasionally until the apples are soft. Scrape the apples out of the pan onto a plate and let cool.
• Make the donuts:.
• In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and spices. In a medium bowl, whisk the brown sugar and and eggs. Slowly stream in the reserved brown butter, then add the vanilla, sour cream and cider. Toss the cooked and cooled apples in with the dry to coat. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry until a smooth dough forms.
• On a lightly floured work surface, press out the dough to 3/4-inch thickness. Cut the dough using a small donut cutter and place on two well-floured baking sheets. (Scraps can be kneaded back together and re-rolled.).
• Line two baking sheets with paper towels. Pour oil into a large, deep skillet to a depth of 2-inches. Attach a deep-fry thermometer and heat the oil to 365 degrees F to 370 degrees F. Fry the doughnuts until deep golden brown, about 45 seconds on each side. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to the paper towels to drain.
• Make the glaze:.
• Whisk together the bourbon, honey, lemon juice and powdered sugar. If it is too thick, add more bourbon. If it is too thin, add more sugar.
• Dip the freshly fried donuts in the glaze and serve warm!

CIDER DONUTS

Steps:

• Heat cider in a pot over medium-high until reduced to 1/3 cup, 10 minutes.
• Dust a baking sheet with flour. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and ginger. Beat butter and 3/4 cup sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg and yolk, then reduced cider. Scrape down bowl, then beat in dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with buttermilk, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Turn out dough onto baking sheet; use floured hands to flatten to a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle. Refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to overnight (if longer than 1 hour, cover with plastic wrap).
• Pour oil into a large, deep, heavy pot, such as a Dutch oven, until it reaches 2 inches up side, leaving about 2 1/2 inches headroom. Clip a deep-fry thermometer to pot and heat oil over medium to 350 degrees. Meanwhile, using a floured 2 1/2-inch round donut cutter, cut out donuts (or use a 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter, then cut out holes with a 1- to 1 1/2-inch round cutter). Pat together scraps; cut out more donuts (these will not be quite as tender). Working in batches of 3 so as not to crowd pot, carefully drop donuts into hot oil and cook, flipping a few times, until deep golden brown all over, 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 minutes (2 1/2 to 3 1/2 minutes for holes), maintaining oil temperature between 340 degrees and 350 degrees at all times. Transfer donuts and holes to a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet; let cool 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir together remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1 cup sugar. While still slightly warm, roll each donut in cinnamon sugar. Let stand until donuts are cool, about 1 hour. Donuts are best eaten the day they are made.
