How to Make Sweet Cider Donuts

  1. Preheat your deep fryer or large pot filled with oil to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 cup apple cider, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Gradually add 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1 cup Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Lightly flour a clean work surface. Turn the dough out onto the surface and gently knead a few times until smooth. Roll the dough to 1/2-inch thickness.
  5. Use a donut cutter (or a biscuit cutter and a smaller cutter for the hole) to cut out the donuts. Carefully drop the donuts into the hot oil, a few at a time, ensuring not to overcrowd the fryer.
  6. Fry the donuts for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil.
  7. Place the cooked donuts on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  8. While still warm, toss the donuts in a mixture of 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, or frost with your favorite glaze.
