Steps
Apple Cider Cinnamon Sugar Donut Holes
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a donut hole pan.
- In a saucepan, melt butter; let cool. In a large bowl, combine 3 tablespoons melted butter, egg, sugar, apple cider, orange juice and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and sea salt. Whisk flour mixture into egg mixture until a smooth batter is formed.
- Using a pastry bag or spoon, fill baking pan with batter. Bake until donut holes rise and are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Flip donut holes onto a baking sheet with a wire rack and cool.
- Dip donut holes in reserved butter, then evenly coat in sugar mixture. Place donut holes on wire rack.
- Drizzle glaze on donut holes or dip the tops in glaze. Let glaze set before serving.
