How to Make Apple Cider Cake Donuts

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Generously grease four mini bundt cake molds with cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter and 1 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 cup apple cider.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the four prepared molds, filling each about ¾ full.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the mini bundt cakes cool in the molds for a few minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Repeat steps 7-9 with the remaining batter if needed. (You may need to adjust baking time slightly depending on your oven.)
  11. Enjoy your warm Apple Cider Cake Donuts with a cup of coffee or your favorite fall beverage!
