Apple Cider Donuts

DONUTS_600-(1).jpg
  • 1 cup apple cider 
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 
  • 5 tbsps unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg 
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tbsp baking powder 
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
For the cinnamon sugar:
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 
  • 3 tbsps ground cinnamon
   
  • Vegetable oil (for frying)
 

Directions:

  1. Heat the apple cider in a large saucepan over medium high heat until reduced to 1/3 cup (should take about 10 minutes) 
  2. In a large bowl using a hand-held or standing mixer beat together the sugar and the butter until the mixture is pale (about 3 minutes). Add the eggs and continue beating for another 2 minutes until light and fluffy. 
  3. Pour the buttermilk, reduced cider, and vanilla into sugar/butter/egg mixture. Mix well (don't worry if the mixture looks a bit curdled, it will smooth out) 
  4. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg; set aside. Add the flour mixture to the bowl with the wet ingredients and combine gently
  5. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surgace and knead it a few times until it comes together; form into a ball. Roll out the dough so that it's 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out rounds with a 3-inch donut cutter. Don't discard the donut holes, fry those too.
  6. In a shallow bowl combine the 1 1/2 cupts granulated sugar and with the 3 tbsp of ground cinnamon. Set aside
  7. Heat the vegetable oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F
  8. Fry the donuts working in batches. Add the donuts to the Dutch oven and cook until evenly golden and crispy, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate for 30 seconds, then roll warm donuts in cinnamon sugar mixture to coat.
