Apple Cider Doughnut Holes 🍎🍩:
Ingredients 🍎🍩
– 1 cup apple cider 🍎
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar 🍚
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted 🧈
– 1 large egg 🥚
– 2 cups all-purpose flour 🌾
– 2 teaspoons baking powder 🧁
– 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 🌟
– 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 🌰
– 1/4 teaspoon salt 🧂
For the Coating:
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar 🍚
– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 🌟
Preparation 🍳
1. Reduce the Cider: In a small saucepan, bring the apple cider to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until the cider is reduced to about 1/4 cup. Let it cool slightly.
2. Prepare the Doughnut Batter: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a mini muffin tin or doughnut hole pan. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, melted butter, and egg until well combined. Stir in the reduced apple cider.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
4. Fill the Pan: Spoon or pipe the batter into the mini muffin tin or doughnut hole pan, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
5. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the doughnut holes to cool slightly before removing them from the pan.
6. Coat with Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon for the coating. Roll the warm doughnut holes in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until coated.
7. Serve: Enjoy your apple cider doughnut holes warm or at room temperature. Perfect for a sweet and seasonal treat! 😋
Ideal for a cozy fall snack or dessert!
