APPLE CIDER DOUGHNUTS WITH MAPLE GLAZE



Apple Cider Doughnuts With Maple Glaze image

In the Vermont countryside, there are two sure signs of spring: frost heaves in the road and smoke rising from the chimneys of the sugarhouses. This recipe was inspired by treats you find while touring this corner of America: cider doughnuts and maple syrup. A mini-Bundt pan produces adorable doughnut-shaped cakes, but if you do not have one, you can use a regular Bundt pan and make a coffee cake; bake it in a 375-degree F oven fo r 25 to 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh apple cider for the best flavor. If you don't have apple cider, you can substitute apple juice, but the flavor will be less pronounced.
  • Be sure to chill the dough before rolling and cutting it. This will help the doughnuts hold their shape better.
  • If you don't have a doughnut cutter, you can use a biscuit cutter or even a glass to cut the doughnuts out of the dough.
  • Fry the doughnuts in hot oil until they are golden brown on both sides. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the doughnuts will not cook evenly.
  • Drain the doughnuts on paper towels before glazing them. This will help to remove any excess oil.
  • The maple glaze is optional, but it adds a delicious sweetness and richness to the doughnuts.

Conclusion:

Apple cider doughnuts are a classic fall treat that are easy to make at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create delicious doughnuts that are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet, give these apple cider doughnuts a try!
