Time 1h18m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 1/3 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 cup applesauce
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons shortening
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
Vegetable oil
Cinnamon-sugar mixture, if desired

Steps:

  • Beat 1 1/3 cups of the flour and the remaining ingredients except oil and cinnamon-sugar in large bowl with electric mixer on low speed, scraping bowl constantly, until blended. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in remaining 2 cups flour. Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until dough stiffens.
  • Heat oil (2 to 3 inches) in deep fryer or 3-quart saucepan to 375°F. Divide dough in half. Place half of the dough on well-floured cloth-covered surface; gently roll in flour to coat. Gently roll dough 3/8 inch thick. Cut with floured doughnut cutter. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Slide doughnuts into hot oil, using wide spatula. Turn doughnuts as they rise to surface. Fry 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Carefully remove from oil (do not prick surfaces); drain on paper towels. Sprinkle hot doughnuts with cinnamon-sugar.

These doughnuts are the perfect way to use up leftover applesauce. They're also a great way to get kids to eat their fruits.

I'm not a big fan of applesauce, but these doughnuts were surprisingly good. The applesauce flavor was subtle and not overpowering.
