Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Begin by boiling the apple cider in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until it reduces to about 1/4 cup, roughly 10-15 minutes. Allow it to cool.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your donut pan with cooking spray or butter.
- In a large bowl, mix together the melted butter and sugar until combined.
- Add the egg, Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and the reduced apple cider to the mixture. Stir until smooth.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared donut pan, filling each mold about 3/4 full.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- While the donuts are baking, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter in one bowl, and mix 1/2 cup sugar with 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon in another bowl.
- Once the donuts are done, allow them to cool for about 5 minutes before removing them from the pan.
- Dip each warm donut in the melted butter and then coat it in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Notes
Serve fresh out of the oven, plain or with glaze. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
