- Whisk the flour, baking powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cinnamon, salt, baking soda and nutmeg in a medium bowl.
- Beat 2/3 cup of the sugar and shortening in another bowl with a mixer on medium speed until sandy. Beat in the egg and yolk, then gradually mix in the applesauce, scraping the bowl.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, oil, buttermilk and cider. Whisk in the egg and applesauce (see recipe below).
- In a small bowl, sift two and a half cups of the flour with the mace, cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda. Add this mixture to the applesauce mixture and mix to make a soft dough, adding additional flour as needed.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and dust liberally with flour. Flour your hands and knead the dough, adding additional flour as necessary, to make a soft dough that is no longer sticky. Roll the dough to one-half-inch thickness and cut with a doughnut cutter. Place the cut doughnuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and place in the refrigerator. The cut doughnuts can be refrigerated for several hours, if desired.
- Pour at least two inches of oil into a deep pan and bring it to 375 degrees over moderate heat. Dip a spatula into the hot oil and slide the doughnuts into the oil three or four at a time and fry them a minute or so on each side, until golden brown. They should take about three minutes each to fry. If they brown in less time than that, your oil is too hot.
- Lift the fried doughnuts out of the oil with a slotted spoon and place them on several thicknesses of paper towel to drain. Dust them with sifted confectioners' sugar while they are still warm.

APPLESAUCE DROP DOUGHNUTS
Quick & easy to make. You can have the batter whipped up in the amount of time it takes for the oil to heat. (I use a Fry Daddy.) We actually like them better after they sit for 5-6 hours rather than warm like most doughnuts I make.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Beat in applesauce and vanilla.
- Combine flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg; add to the creamed mixture alternately with milk (batter will be extremely thick). In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°F.
- Drop teaspoonfuls of batter a few at a time into hot oil.
- Turn with a slotted spoon and fry until golden, about 1 minute on each side. Drain on paper towels; roll in sugar while warm.
Tips:
- For a crispier doughnut, fry the doughnuts in batches and do not overcrowd the pan.
- To make sure the doughnuts are cooked through, use a wooden skewer to pierce the center of a doughnut. If the skewer comes out clean, the doughnuts are done.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- For a sweeter doughnut, add an extra 1/4 cup of sugar to the batter.
- For a more cake-like doughnut, add an extra 1/4 cup of flour to the batter.
Conclusion:
These applesauce doughnuts with buttermilk are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a snack. With their moist and fluffy texture, and sweet and tangy flavor, these doughnuts are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
