Baked Apple Cider Donuts

Baked Apple Cider Donuts

Every fall my dad picks apples to make cider in his fruit press. He loves doing this, and he also loves to share the cider that he makes. Which means I’m always looking for new ways to use the cider! These Baked Apple Cider Donuts are a great way to use his cider.

Our oldest daughter lives near the Louisburg Cider Mill, in Louisburg, Kansas, where they make the most fabulous cider donuts. But that’s a 90-minute drive for us. Too far to drive when the donut-craving hits!

The donuts you buy there are fried and dipped in a cinnamon sugar mixture. These Baked Apple Cider Donuts use my dad’s cider. They’re baked instead of fried, and this version has a cider glaze, which helps bring out the delicious cider flavor. Try them and see what you think!

Out of all those, however, my favorite is Hosting a Christmas Tea Party. Continue reading Hosting a Christmas Tea Party
