Ingredients for Apple Cider Doughnuts With Maple Glaze

How to Make Apple Cider Doughnuts With Maple Glaze

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a mini-bundt pan (or a regular bundt pan).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, apple cider, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chopped apples.
  6. Fill the prepared mini-bundt pan cups about ¾ full. (If using a regular bundt pan, fill it about ⅔ full)
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the doughnuts cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. While the doughnuts are cooling, prepare the maple glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the maple syrup, butter, and heavy cream. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and the glaze is smooth.
  10. Once the doughnuts are completely cool, drizzle generously with the maple glaze.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
